As our community continues to mourn the loss of those who tragically lost their lives on May 14th, 2022, at Tops Supermarket.

The UB Community Health Equity Research Institute was created with a goal to perform research to advance understanding of the root causes and to develop and test innovative solutions to eliminate health inequities in the region.
Ten highly accomplished scholars and artists will come to UB this fall as members of the newest cohort of the year-long Distinguished Visiting Scholars (DVS) program in the College of Arts and Sciences. Their work will help elucidate social inequality and advance social justice within the university and Buffalo community.
UB faculty member Sarah J. Ventre opened the second Community Advocacy Conference by talking about the first such event, which took place last year.
