Earlier this year, upon the recommendation of CAFP’s JEDI Task Force, the CAFP Board decided to create an enduring JEDI Committee. The CAFP Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (JEDI) Committee will be responsible for guiding CAFP organizational efforts to prioritize justice by increasing diversity, equity and inclusion. The general purpose and function of the committee is to measure, improve and report on JEDI and serve as advisor, guide and champion of CAFP JEDI efforts. The full charter of responsibilities, committee structure, member requirements and meeting frequency is available on the CAFP Board Committees page on our website. Members from a broad demographic, including medical students and residents, and with training or a strong interest in DEI, are encouraged to complete an application by the deadline of April 17, 2023. Thanks to the amazing members of our JEDI Task Force, who created the framework and initial recommendations for CAFP JEDI work:
Shannon Connolly MD, FAAFP - Chair
Melissa Campos MD - Vice Chair
Brent Katsumi Sugimoto MD, MS, MPH, FAAFP
Robert Assibey MD
Mihal Emberton MD
