Background
Recently, all too familiar stories of racial injustice have dominated the headlines, calling into relief the desperate need for research and initiatives supporting minority communities. As psychological scientists, we have the tools to respond to this need. And yet, psychology departments frequently lack diversity in their research, researchers, and program initiatives. In order to rectify this shortcoming—and to be a leading department in the field of Psychology—we are hoping to support and incentivize excellent psychological science and initiatives that represents the society on which we aim to shine a light.

Impact
By investing in research and initiatives that emphasizes diversity and inclusion, we aim to accomplish four goals:
Grow USF’s contribution to our understanding of issues affecting minority populations;
Encourage and support USF researchers who pursue this essential work;
Support students typically underrepresented within academia;
Make the USF Department of Psychology a place where researchers of diverse backgrounds want to work.
