Committee to Advance Surgical Excellence and Inclusion

With an unwavering commitment to inclusive excellence, we aim to ensure diversity and equity across ACS  initiatives for clinical quality and safety, surgical training and research, and professional well-being by eliminating bias and discrimination. Through educational programs, engagement initiatives, and collaborative partnerships, we provide the tools and resources necessary to promote awareness and understanding, social justice, and inclusivity for all surgeons.
