Our residency program is committed to providing an inclusive environment for our patients, our students, our residents, and our faculty. We are committed to UofL's Cardinal Anti-Racism agenda and excited about Norton Healthcare's $20 million commitment to address health equity, ensure primary care for the community, new leadership that reflects community demographics, education and advocacy about health policy issues, and investment in the underserved areas of Louisville.

Community Outreach and Engagement

Mission	Vision	Values

Our committee exists

To identify weaknesses and strengths within our residency program;
To help foster a nurturing and supportive environment that values different perspectives;
To create a sustainable model to strive for continuous improvements in our practices.

All of these with the ultimate goal of training a workforce of pediatricians who are equipped to provide culturally competent care to patients.

We want our pediatric residency program

To be considered among the best at providing culturally competent education both within University of Louisville's Graduate Medical Education but also among regional pediatric residency programs;
To have a workforce (both trainees and faculty) that better reflects the population we serve; to maintain community outreach on every level: students, residents, fellows, and faculty.
To be a model of engagement of different perspectives so that all can thrive.
