Lerissa Smith presented on NIH’s DEIA Strategic Plan Update in October 2024, highlighting the agency’s mapping of all DEI activities. After collecting more than 2,700 activities, they created a database of agency-wide DEI activity.
She said, “These analytical efforts help us to understand where we stand as an agency and recognize our strengths and areas where we can improve.”
This database should be public so we can see what activities are continuing under disguise after President Trump eliminated DEI programs.
