We are Size Inclusivity in Medicine, an affiliate chapter of Medical Students for Size Inclusivity (MSSI)!
We are a collective of medical trainees and professionals interested in advancing weight inclusivity and reducing weight bias in healthcare and health education. We aim to provide solutions, discussion spaces, and support as we explore new methods of size inclusive care.
Our mission is to educate trainees and clinicians about the impact of weight stigma on the health of our communities and ourselves
Our vision is a healthcare system and community where people can achieve self-defined success in health, regardless of size, shape, and weight.
