As the faculty, staff, and training residents of Tulane Psychiatry, we all want to be part of an organization that is committed to upholding the values of inclusivity, equity, and diversity. We understand that this statement is only the beginning of an ongoing discussion and not a substitute for action and change.
We value both the visible and invisible qualities that make us who we are. We welcome the different and unique perspectives and experiences each member of our faculty, staff and trainees offer to Tulane Psychiatry.
We are incredibly proud to train and practice in New Orleans, one of the most special, resilient, and eclectic cities in our country. We promise to see our patients as more than just patients, but as the individuals who make up the backbone of New Orleans, who contribute to the wonderful and unique community for which we are known. This means that we approach every interaction as a chance to embrace humility, to learn from our shared humanity and our lived histories.
We believe that not only our program, but all humans will only be able to flourish when we truly commit to valuing diversity in race, ethnicity, gender identity, disability, religion, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status. It is imperative that the recruitment, education, and training within our department and all of Tulane encompasses such tenants.
