ARISE Vision Statement
The ARISE (Act, Respond, Include, Sustain, Empower) Intersectional Coalition aims to use an anti-racist and intersectional approach to address various needs, challenges, and opportunities to promote a greater sense of equity, inclusion, and belonging for faculty, staff, and trainees within the Stanford Department of Pediatrics.
Overarching Goals of ARISE

- Create meaningful opportunities for faculty and staff to engage and contribute to DEIJ efforts and culture change across the department as Action Team Members
- Provide a structure for ongoing development, collaboration, and sustainability of DEIJ initiatives
