Diversity and Cultural Awareness Leadership Team (DCALT)

Diversity and Cultural Awareness Leadership Team (DCALT) is a group of dedicated current and former Psychiatry personnel who meet monthly to create opportunities for policy and practice improvement, as well as ongoing professional development and training, to improve understanding of difference within our walls. Members participate in diversity related committees and activities throughout the medical center, University, and community to increase our collective capacity in this area. Currently, this group meets the second Thursday of the month from 1-2 p.m. To join, or for more information, please call (585) 275-3571.
