The Association of Clinicians for the Underserved is proud to release our 2021 Annual Report: 25 Years of ACU showcasing selected accomplishments and initiatives from 2021. Despite the pandemic’s challenges, our community’s incredible commitment to underserved populations shone through, and together we made powerful progress in our shared work to achieve health equity for all.
In this monumental year, ACU grew exponentially as our staff and network raised our organization to new heights. This report highlights those achievements, ranging from expanding our programs to support workforce recruitment and retention and a new initiative to help prepare National Health Service Corps (NHSC) members to work in underserved communities to singular advocacy and a renewed commitment to justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion in all that we do.
