DEIAC
SIR’s Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Advancement Coalition
Diversity and inclusion
The Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Advancement Coalition (DEIAC) is comprised of SIR members and key stakeholders focused on promoting diversity and inclusion within the interventional radiology workforce and SIR membership.
This group works with other SIR committees on opportunities and programs that will provide value to SIR, the interventional radiology community and stakeholders. They also provide guidance to the Executive Council on diversity and inclusion issues and develop plans for approval as needed. This group works within SIR's Member Services Division.
