Thank you to our partners over at UC Davis Health and Office for Health Equity, Diversity and Inclusion for a fantastic kick-off event and for the amazing video! 👏 Stay tuned for more information on how we are celebrating 35 years of Principles of Community. 🎉 #PrinciplesofCommunity #OurUCDavis
We recently celebrated the 35th anniversary of our Principles of Community Week! With around 600 people circulating in the Betty Irene More Hall, from Doctors in white coats to students in sweatshirts, every inch of the event showed guests smiling, eating, and laughing. The event held over five dozen booths, including employee resources, books and jewelry, free stickers, and many prizes. From delicious dishes from Food and Nutrition to our Public Affairs and Marketing table giving away "Believe in Better” T-shirts, there was nothing but warmth emulating the room. Representatives from the Miwok Native American Tribe sang two songs, which were declared prayers to Mother Earth. Baile Folklorico took the stage in bright dresses and performed with incredible footwork. Aztec dancers appeared with jaw-dropping headpieces made of dozens of feathers. In another room, Chinese dragon dancers dazzled. “Thank you for this space,” one attendee said. “We need this kind of joy and community more than ever right now.” Thanks to the UC Davis Division of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion and Office for Health Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, the Principles of Community Celebration truly brought the UC Davis Health community together - exactly as intended.
