As federal funded programs, public institutions, and universities roll back Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies, we are losing critical support for equity-centered initiatives. Now, public health leaders are faced with the question: How do we continue the work of advancing health equity in a time when DEI itself is under attack?
In this episode, I speak with Dr. Janine Hill—a leadership coach and founder of Soar Strategies—about the evolving landscape of DEI in public health. From disappearing datasets to legislative crackdowns on DEI programs, Dr. Hill offers clarity, context, and practical guidance on how public health professionals can stay grounded in equity despite external pressures.
We explore:
- Why DEI is essential to public health—not just a buzzword
- How universities and public health programs can adapt to shifting legal constraints
- What to do when DEI-related data is censored or retracted
- The power (and risk) of community partnerships in the absence of institutional support
- Creative strategies for continuing DEI work—even if you can’t call it that
- How to foster safe, resilient spaces for equity-driven leadership
Whether you’re a student, researcher, policymaker, or health leader, this episode will leave you informed and inspired to keep moving equity forward.
