4 The Sullivan Commission Report Missing Persons: Minorities in the Health Professions The Sullivan Commission put forth 37 recommendations based upon 3 overarching principles: 1.Culture of health professions’ schools must change in order to increase diversity in the health professions; 2.New and nontraditional paths to the health professions should be explored; 3.Commitments must be at the highest levels of our government and in the private sector.

6 The Mission of the Sullivan Alliance The Sullivan Alliance is committed to increasing diversity in the health professions in order to help reduce racial and ethnic health disparities:  Providing national leadership  Increasing awareness  Spurring action

7 The Focus of the Sullivan Alliance  Medicine  Nursing  Dentistry  Psychology  Public Health

8 Why State Alliances? Lack of federal focus or commitment States directly involved in addressing the: –Health access needs of citizens –Education gaps Commitment within the academic community to identifying and nurturing students, faculty and administrators of diverse backgrounds Formalizing the relationships inter- and intra-campuses results in real change…a direct increase in the number of qualified students committing to graduate studies within the health professions More efficient use of resources – sharing resources

9 What Is a State Alliance? Formal collaboration between higher education institutions, MSIs and majority schools, dedicated to developing a more robust, diversified healthcare workforce pipeline for their state, and therefore, the nation
