As we come upon the anniversary of Moments to Movement, Chancellor Eugene A. Washington has updated the community on the initiatives that were started across the health system to create and/or advance racial, social and health equity.

Here are ways you can join in the commemoration: 

“I Stand for Peace” M2M Anniversary

Please join us in person at the Duke School of Nursing building on May 25 at 2 p.m. We will stand and reflect on the accomplishments as well as the tragedies that we continue to experience.
