As healthcare practitioners, we recognize that racism is a public health crisis! 

We recognize that Black people are systematically targeted by police and state violence, which is only the current manifestation of a 400 hundred-year legacy of oppression. We envision a world where Black lives are respected, protected and uplifted.

There is much work to be done. At the clinic we are working towards not only holding a safe healing space, but also deepening our commitment to creating a world that is actively and explicitly anti-racist.  

To help shift the ground of petrified structures that reinforce institutionalized racism towards more equality and justice, one course of action is to support our allies who dedicate their lives’ work to this end.
