Diversity and Multicultural Resources

Our Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion

The Clinical Psychology program at the University of Kentucky is committed to recognizing the diverse multicultural environment in which we live.  We value the dignity and worth of individuals without regard to gender identity or expression, ethnicity, race, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, political beliefs, or socioeconomic status.  We strive to be sensitive to cultural issues and to continue to expand our cultural competence through the creation of a respectful environment and ongoing diversity education.  We believe that our training program benefits from a commitment to recruiting, maintaining, and supporting diverse students and faculty.

We are institutional members of the Society for Black Brain and Behavioral Scientists.  

We are proud to share that UK ranks among the top 25 campuses in the nation for LGBTQ* inclusion and safety.
