The recruitment subcommittee (Co-chaired by Stacey L’Hommedieu and Shannon McWilliams) is committed to efforts involving diversifying hiring processes.  Our goal is to source the best candidates from a wide range of cultures, backgrounds and perspectives.  We understand that a diversified employee population is the only way we will be able to achieve our department mission and vision now and in the future.  We are committed to seeking out opportunities to ensure we attract a diverse candidate pool and want to ensure the candidate experience is both welcoming and fully inclusive.  We understand implicit bias is a factor we need to mitigate through education and training.  Our hope is to create a great first impression for both candidates and employees.

The DEI Retention Subcommittee meets on the first Monday of each month at 12PM 

---

 

The retention subcommittee (Co-chaired by Fernand Lubuguin and Stephanie Vetter) is committed to ensuring an inclusive environment within the department of psychiatry and affiliates. We believe an inclusive, welcoming, and diverse culture will help people from all backgrounds and identities feel comfortable at the University. We know that there are inequities within our system that affect how people present, feel at work, and thrive. We celebrate the differences within our department and want everyone to feel like their most genuine self can shine through in their work. Currently we are working towards a buddy system to help with the onboarding process, and make sure everyone has someone they can connect with. We are also working to build a repository of events on campus and within our community to highlight the diversity of Aurora, Denver, and the surrounding areas. We work with other subcommittees to weave in DEI work throughout the department. We also work to enhance the mentorship and promotion of our colleagues.
