Committees

The following committees are open to any resident/fellow who is interested in joining!

Wellness Committee

The Wellness and Engagement Committee is a resident-led committee dedicated to promoting resident well-being and fostering a supportive, connected residency community. Our goals include encouraging a healthy work-life balance, providing education on physical, psychological, social, and professional wellness, and maintaining a strong peer support and advocacy network. The committee organizes wellness activities throughout the year, including resident breakfasts, coffee events, and residency-wide challenges, such as step competitions, to encourage connection, engagement, and a little friendly competition!

Special Projects Committee

The Special Projects Committee is a resident-led committee focused on identifying and addressing the evolving needs and interests of our diverse resident community. The committee plans, organizes, and implements both short- and long-term initiatives aimed at improving the resident experience and advocating for meaningful changes. Past projects have included improving overnight food options, addressing resident salaries, and advocating for enhanced resident benefits.

Resident Life and Culture Committee

The Resident Life and Culture Committee is a resident-led committee dedicated to highlighting the people, experiences, and community that make our residency unique. The committee manages our residency’s social media presence, sharing resident accomplishments, program events, and glimpses into life both inside and outside of work. The committee also helps promote resident engagement and camaraderie through occasional social gatherings and off-campus activities.
