Dear MSS members, UCSF medical students, and our male colleagues,  

On behalf of the Muriel Steele Society (MSS) Wellness committee, we are excited to invite you to our next Second Tuesday Wellness Event, HeForShe at UCSF! This will be held on Tuesday, December 8, 2020 from 7-8PM.    

In efforts to continue to promote gender equality in our workplace, we will be holding our first ever HeForShe Event. This event is inspired by the United Nation’s campaign that promotes gender equality in various settings worldwide. You can find more information regarding the global HeForShe movement at: https://www.heforshe.org/en . This event is an invitation for men and people of all genders to understand how women’s daily experiences and interactions in the workplace differ from their male colleagues and to learn ways by which they can support women in unequal settings.

This will be an interactive discussion led by Dr. Wen Shen and other faculty members of the Department of Surgery. We plan to meet as a large group and in smaller break-out rooms to discuss several relevant topics. 

Please forward this invitation to any of your male colleagues that you think might like to attend. We are sending this to the entire Department of Surgery, but we would love to include your male colleagues from other surgical subspecialities. 

To our male colleagues: We very much hope to see as many of you there as can make it!

We would like to generate some questions/ topics prior to the event to guide our discussion. Please use this survey link to RSVP and/or share your ideas (even if you are unable to attend): https://forms.gle/NzDg9FqPx8AbRdVf7
