Women of Color Professional Network

In order to enjoy the benefits of its richly diverse community, it is essential for UCSF to examine, understand and address the effects of gender and racial/ethnic identity on workplace dynamics. Recognizing this need, CGE provides an opportunity for women of color-regardless of academic or administrative classification-to network annually and develop the professional skills required to excel at the university.
