Please join us for a student-led initiative to examine closely the need to address police violence and racism as public health issues directly affecting the safety of communities in the US and particularly here in San Francisco.

This event is the initiative of the Do No Harm Coalition at UCSF, which is a group of students, faculty and staff spanning the entire campus who are interested in furthering the local and national dialogue around community policing and public safety for all.

This event is open to UCSF community members and the public. Dinner will be provided.
