DIVERSITY , EQUITY AND INCLUSION HOSTS EVENTS
On March 21, 2022, the department's Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Council hosted 15 Northwestern undergraduate students along with the Northwestern University Docs Program. The purpose of this event was to introduce students to radiology as a career option. The Council also facilitated another small group discussion event on March 29, 2022. This discussion panel was called: “How to Create an Inclusive Workplace.”
Additionally, the Northwestern Women in Radiology Group raised over two thousand dollars this past winter for Sarah’s Circle, a local not-for-profit organization that helps women in need. The mission of Horizons for youth is "to transform children’s lives by providing targeted resources rooted in education in a trusting partnership with their families and communities." For more information about Horizons got the Youth, visit their website. The Council's Director, Dr. Senta Berggruen, said, "We are also in the process of organizing a career event for Horizons for Youth high school students in the spring, as well as two events for Chicagoland high school students through the Lurie Cancer Youth Lab Exploration Program."
