Led by Vice Chancellor Renetta Garrison Tull, Inclusive Excellence is rooted in four powerful pillars: Engage, Equip, Empower, and Elevate.

We lead and strengthen the efforts of the UC Davis community to realize our collective vision of excellence in which people from all backgrounds thrive. Our UC Davis community includes faculty, staff, and students, at all UC Davis locations, including laboratories, clinical services, and centers across California.

We ENGAGE all to participate in generating ideas and taking action. We EQUIP stakeholders to embed the structure, values and resources for inclusive excellence in their work, and we serve as a hub for inclusive practices innovation. We EMPOWER people to launch inclusive practice for their work, learning, growth, and community spaces. We ELEVATE the contributions of our champions through recognition, awards and dissemination.

We invite our broader community (patients and their families, prospective students and their families, and our community and institutional partners) to partner with us to realize this vision.
