The Office of Opportunity and Engagement (OOE), as part of the UCSF School of Nursing, is committed to supporting our community of teachers, clinicians, staff and learners to be national and international leaders in research, education, clinical practice, administration, policy and other emerging areas. We aim to provide opportunities for growth and engagement in a caring community in which all people experience kindness, compassion and dignity.
In supporting the UCSF values of professionalism, respect, integrity, diversity and excellence, we celebrate different lived experiences within our community and among those we serve as health care providers and researchers. We commit to being engaged partners and instigators of meaningful change that fosters a culture that prioritizes growth and belonging in our School of Nursing community, one of the key pillars of SON True North.
How We Get There
To continue moving our community towards growth and equal opportunity, we define meaningful goals that can be measured across time to identify successes and where we have space to improve. These goals may be achieved by support from our office, but also from the many people working toward greater opportunity and engagement within the School of Nursing and throughout UCSF. These goals reflect our aspiration to prevent discrimination and provide opportunity and representation to all people by growing a climate of belonging, kindness and care, as well as a place where our community members demonstrate inclusive behaviors toward each other and have opportunity for professional growth.
