The diverse coat society©

The Diverse Coat Society

Professional Association and Retail

The Diverse Coat Society (DCS) was founded in July 2022.


The DCS is a society of diverse educators and healthcare professionals coming together to provide conversations, activities, and support for interprofessional goals leading to educational and health equity and general public safety. Intersectionality and Black Coat Conversations (BCC)© are at the core of the group’s purpose. The goal of the society is to spread their purpose through visibility and professional association. The logo is symbolic of  our interprofessional roles as we wear different coats in society that will intersect to reach educational and health equity. In this professional association, you have the option to wear whatever color coat you want.  Historically, the color is white. The foundational color of this group is black.  However, we focus on all shades of the skin which is a representation of all.


The DCS serves as a professional advisory group for the J R Young Health Equity Institute. 


Join the DCS on Facebook.com!


The society also provides quality retail services for the institute, including apparel, paraphernalia, gifts, books, and other educational resources.
