The numbers of underrepresented minorities in medical schools are alarming. Current trends in racial and ethnic health care disparities are widely documented and a major focus of many recent policy changes. One frequently discussed solution is the need to increase the number of minority providers.

AACOM is committed to increasing diversity in osteopathic medicine and we have teamed up with Tour4Diversity in Medicine<http://tour4diversity.org/> to bring to you our first Diversity in Osteopathic Medicine: Virtual Event<https://www.careereco.com/Fair/EventDetails?fairId=b83a8fd5-d11c-4c4f-b8df-ac0e010a4672>.

On September 12, 2020 from 12-6pm ET, we invite you to join us for live workshops with physicians and current medical students on topics such as critical test taking strategies, the importance of mentorship, interview skills, and more!
