We write to you today concerning the tragic events that continue to unfold worldwide. Whether due to the recent hurricanes, political turmoil, or the ongoing pandemic in the United States, throughout the Caribbean, in Afghanistan, and elsewhere, we want to acknowledge this time as one of disharmony and chaos for many peoples in our YSM community and globally.

These events remind us to lean on and hold up one another in seemingly constant trying times. With this in mind, we are reminded of our goals to promote a more equitable and safe world for our patients, families, and communities. We must not be disillusioned by the injustice and instability around us as future physicians and leaders.

To our brothers and sisters affected by these tumultuous times, we are here to support and stand by you in any way we can. If you ever need anyone to talk to or a listening ear you can reach out to any of our board members or DM this account.
