To combat these statistics and work towards reducing discrimination and building leadership within the female medical population, residents throughout our regions have been working together to build our Women in Medicine community. Our programming has included dinners, conferences, meetings, and trainings, providing a forum to address issues faced by women in the medical workplace, work on strategies to combat discrimination and inequalities, and develop mentorships with CIR alumnae, as well as connect with other female physicians, learn from one another, and just have fun!
Topics have included:
- Lack of female mentors
- Difficulties faced during pregnancy
- How to address sexual harassment in the workplace
- Self defense
- Community building
- Networking and learning opportunities
