ABAI Statement on Racism
6/5/2020
The American Board of Allergy and Immunology (ABAI) recognizes that our country continues to struggle with the complexities of racism and the challenges of the underrepresented. ABAI denounces racism. Our diplomates have always provided compassionate expert care for the many allergic and immunologic diseases that disproportionately affect so many underrepresented patients nationwide.
The ABAI’s commitment to diplomates, staff and the communities we serve is unwavering. We embrace the diversity of ABAI, its diplomates and the patients entrusted to their care. We strongly support the work being undertaken to dismantle ongoing injustices. We support the many stepping forward to make a positive impact on health and healthcare by extinguishing racism and eliminating health disparities.
