In celebration of Black History Month, CU Anschutz is launching the “Get To Know” series to highlight Black excellence on campus year-round – leaders, innovators and change makers who are accomplishing the extraordinary in their fields every day. The “Get To Know” series will expand throughout the year as an inclusive platform for voices on our campus. 


This week, Cerise Hunt, PhD, MSW, associate dean for equity, diversity and inclusion, director of the Center for Public Health Practice and assistant professor of community and behavioral health at the Colorado School of Public Health discusses how she promotes equity for the Black community through dismantling structural racism in our public health and healthcare systems.
