“Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health care is the most shocking and inhumane.” This quote by Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. resonates w/ me greatly. Collaboration, inclusion, and diversity must be embedded in every facet of our fight against cancer. #MLKDay2023

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’” We are so proud of our UC community for the multitude of ways you embody Dr. King's message of service and community 🙏 #MLKJrDay
