Cultural Representation Engagement and Belonging (CREB)

Our Mission:

The purpose of the Prehealth Cultural Representation, Engagement, and Belonging (CREB) Committee is to foster a culture where every student, regardless of their background, is empowered to make a profound impact in the field of medicine. We aim to accomplish this by inspiring future healthcare leaders to embrace and champion the vital principles of cultural humility in their leadership, community service, and interactions with a diverse population.
