The Atrium Health Diversity Councils provide oversight and guidance for the work of DEI at the local level. The Councils support our Diversity Agenda and help to integrate strategic imperatives from the Office of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion. Council members are not only advocates, critical thinkers and planners; they are also the initial face of diversity in an organization.
The IT DEI Council is the Diversity Council of the Year. Some of the council’s accomplishments include:
Chan Roush
Executive Sponsor, Central Division DEI Council
VP, Facility Executive, AH CMC & AH Musculoskeletal Institute
