A new AHA Trustee Services resource, Building a Governing Board Strategy on Diversity and Health Equity, includes a series of case studies interviewing nine executives and board leaders, highlighting their hospital or health system’s strong commitment to diversity and health equity and underlining their integration into the fabric of their organization’s culture and governance strategy. The project was produced in collaboration with the Black Directors Health Equity Agenda and the Health Management Academy.
