Our History
Launched in 2020 as part of EVMS’ Advancing Health Equity and Inclusion for Community and Academic Impact Strategic Plan, CIHE works collaboratively across EVMS departments and with local community members.
We aim to expand institution-wide community engagement efforts; develop and expand infrastructure; develop and provide training and technical assistance to EVMS faculty, staff and students; and develop and research new methods to engage and serve under-resourced communities in Southeastern Virginia.
