Impact & Belonging - KUMC Heritage Months and Celebrations

Throughout the year, the Impact & Belonging - KU Medical Center Team marks heritage months with educational and interactive programs. These events provide an opportunity to share historical perspectives, personal experiences, and connections among individuals in our campus communities and beyond. 

Our Team is committed to creating access, ensuring respect, promoting success, and maintaining a learning and working environment that nurtures the growth and development of our students, learners, staff, and faculty. Our office focuses on embracing the rich tapestry of experiences, perspectives, and backgrounds of all Jayhawks, fostering a sense of belonging for our community. 

Through community member spotlights, guest speakers, panels, research presentations, and conversations, we celebrate the wide range of identities and heritages of KU Medical Center community members. When we learn together, we become educated leaders better equipped to build healthy communities and make discoveries that change the world.
