Belonging

Brown Psychiatry and Human Behavior is committed to a culture of belonging within the department's education, research, and clinical care settings, as well as in the community at large.

Committed to a Culture of Belonging

As mental health professionals, we have a responsibility to our patients, research partners, and community members: To treat all people with dignity and respect. 

This means we value the many factors that make a person who they are. It also means we recognize the ways these identities affect a person’s lived experience, and oftentimes, their well-being. Disadvantaged groups experience more illness, less access to care, and poorer health outcomes. As physicians and psychologists, we do not turn away from these realities; we strive to make them better.

We enact these same values within our department of faculty, trainees, and staff. At Brown Psychiatry and Human Behavior, we aim to:

  • Build a warm, welcoming culture that embraces differences
  • Improve the fairness of our operations - in recruitment, promotion, evaluation, awards, communications, etc.
  • Partner with Providence's various communities to advance mental health care and research that meets their needs
  • Teach trainees how to practice clinical care and research that is mindful of complex human identities and social determinants of health, and model those values in their learning environment
  • Support our faculty and staff in developing culturally responsive teaching, research, and clinical skills

Where the Work Gets Done

The faculty, trainees, and staff who make up the department's Community and Belonging Council work together to build a culture of respect and belonging within the department and in partnership with our greater community.
