Diversity, Equity, and Inclusive Excellence at ACOG
We are committed to building a diverse, equitable, and inclusive culture founded in justice for our membership and the people they serve.
As a leader in obstetrics and gynecology, ACOG continues to work toward meaningful change by striving to change the culture of medicine and eliminate inequities in the delivery of health care and health care outcomes. We are committed to combating racism and oppression in all forms. We understand that to truly achieve these changes it is essential that the culture of our organization, membership, leadership, and fellowship be diverse, equitable, inclusive, and just.
