Anti-Discrimination Knowledge Gaps
We are addressing anti-discrimination knowledge gaps by providing learning and development opportunities for UCSF staff, students, faculty, partners, and community members to increase understanding of how historic and current policies, norms, and practices contribute to disparate impact to different groups and introduce best practices to end discriminatory practices across our institution.
Core Areas of Work
UCSF-Wide Training
Foundations of Anti-Discrimination Training
A mandatory online training module to provide all members of our community with foundational knowledge and common language to better understand why diversity is core to our work at UCSF. It is an important first step in our collective effort to live our PRIDE Values and ensure that our Campus and Health systems are free of bias, discrimination, and hate.

Other Education & Training
Program for Historical Reconciliation
The program aims to investigate and report on institutional history that we know contradicts UCSF community and ethical values. The program conducts research into institutional legacies or any claims of past unethical conduct relating to biomedical and clinical research, the University's relationship to our community and industry, and material artifacts that the University holds.
Healers at the Gate
In partnership with GLIDE’s Center for Social Justice, this healthcare training program brings together campus security supervisors, nurses and nursing supervisors, social workers, and other healthcare professionals from across UCSF to interact and commune, in service and dialogue, with people impacted by homelessness.
Alabama Pilgrimage
In partnership with GLIDE’s Center for Social Justice, UCSF employees participate in a five-day immersive educational program in Alabama focused on exploring key events in American history, examining disparities in health, economic, and criminal justice systems, and fostering a broader understanding of how historical developments continue to influence present-day outcomes.
