Completed
Following the June 2023 Supreme Court ruling against affirmative action in colleges and universities, many states introduced legislation in academia to disband DEI efforts. As of August 2024, 86 bills in 28 states have introduced DEI legislation for colleges and universities to disband diversity offices or staff, ban mandatory diversity training, prohibit institutions to use diversity statements in hiring and promotion, or bar colleges for considering race, sex, ethnicity, or national origin in admissions or employment.
This one-day workshop will explore changes in state legislation and policies affecting the health care and public health workforce and potential solutions for advancing DEI.
