About Us

The DePaul Organization for Intersectional Health, provides students interested in medicine, health and wellness at DePaul a space and opportunity to engage in scientific discourse with a social justice lens. The DePaul Organization for Intersectional Health is an organization focused on addressing current issues of equity and justice within health, medicine, and wellness. In addition, we will discuss the role that medicine and science has to play in combating current health inequities and disparities. Our goal is to increase awareness and sensitivity surrounding issues of inequity in healthcare to create more well rounded future health professionals, capable of creating positive change. DePaul places an emphasis on diversity, inclusion, social justice, and community involvement. The DePaul Organization for Intersectional Health will further these values, specifically, in the context of medicine, health, and wellness.
