Mentoring and Educating Diverse Students and Trainees to Excel as Physicians (MEDSTEP)

MEDSTEP grew out of an identified need for additional community and structured mentorship across The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University and the affiliated hospitals.

The program uses a group and peer mentorship model that includes students, residents, housestaff, and attendings to build community and create a safe space for discussion, education and professional growth.  

Our objectives:

• Establish a system of mentorship for all medical students and trainees
• Utilize the group mentorship model and peer mentorship to leverage the resources of the entire Medical School
• Prepare mentors and mentees to address challenging professional situations
• Strengthen the sense of community at the Medical School for faculty, trainees and students
• Create a safe space for discussion, education and professional growth
