Health Professional Students for Size Inclusivity

Student Group: Interprofessional - Social Issues & Advocacy

Website Mission

Mission
We are an interprofessional organization of UCSF students, faculty, and staff raising awareness about the harms of weight bias in healthcare. We are a chapter of Medical Students for Size Inclusivity, whose mission statement we share:

Our mission is to educate future healthcare professionals* about the harms of diet culture and weight discrimination in the healthcare system, eating disorders, and to advocate for equitable care on behalf of patients in larger bodies.

Our goals include advocacy among current and future healthcare providers, community outreach and education, student-led research, and curricular reform.

*We have modified the wording to include healthcare professionals rather than only medical professionals as our organization has an additional focus on expanding this work to other health professional students.
