As a staff affinity group, we are focused on building community and sharing cultural knowledge and insights with the entire Bruin family and beyond. We welcome faculty & staff of all backgrounds to learn, share, and grow with us.

The UCLA Health Pride Network is the systemwide employee and trainee resource group devoted to our LGBTQ community and their allies, covering all LGBTQ initiatives categorized under our four foundational pillars of Clinical Care, Advocacy, Research, and Education. The goal of the Pride Network is to empower our UCLA Health LGBTQ employees and their allies to have a collective voice in fostering a welcoming, respectful, unique, and creative culture within our UCLA Health LGBTQ community and the overall UCLA Health organization.
La Comunidad
La Comunidad, meaning "The Community" in Spanish, is an affinity group dedicated to fostering a safe and inclusive space where members can feel a sense of belonging. Rooted in the celebration of culture, La Comunidad empowers its members to collaborate on initiatives that uplift and advocate for both staff and patients, building a stronger, more united community.

Advocating for equitable health outcomes for under-resourced communities, faculty, staff and trainees have come together as a collective to establish REACH — Realizing Equitable Access to Care for Health — at UCLA Health, working to:
- Widen access to UCLA Health for low-income individuals, particularly those covered by MediCal
- Increase access to UCLA Health for Black and Latino communities of Los Angeles
- Ensure that these patients receive comprehensive and structurally competent services within UCLA Health
