BIPOC Well-being Initiative

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the impact of the Well-Being Initiative for Woman Faculty of Color (the "Program") on overall well-being, career advancement and professional success. The Program is designed for early and mid-career Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) women faculty at U.S. Schools of Pharmacy and Departments of Pharmacology at research-intensive institutions. The UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy, in collaboration with Houston Wellness Workshops for Women (H3W), has developed this two-year program to support the well-being and professional advancement of BIPOC women faculty in pharmacy and pharmaceutical sciences research. Participants in the study will take voluntary surveys during the Program to evaluate three factors: well-being, burnout, and self-efficacy in their professional academic roles before and after completing the Program.
