3. Outreach and Communication

Please describe the methods in which the hospital encourages and seeks out both prime and subcontract suppliers from women, minority, LGBT, and disabled veteran business enterprises to become potential suppliers

Under its Anchor Institution Mission, the UCSF enterprise (“UCSF”), comprised of the UCSF Medical Center (including the Langley Porter Psychiatric Institute) and the UCSF academic system, is committed to working with the community to leverage its operating budget to strengthen its ability to improve the health of the city’s underserved and under-resourced communities, including but not limited to minority, women, LGBT and disabled veteran enterprises, and to promote health equity. UCSF leadership, under the direction of Chancellor Sam Hawgood, has accepted a report titled “Advancing Health Equity in San Francisco: An Assessment of UCSF’s Anchor Institution Capacity and Recommendations for Strategic Direction.” The report, the first step in developing a long-term plan, identified recommendations to drive forward UCSF’s goal of diversifying spend. From these recommendations, a set of priorities were established, calling on greater focus on the development of enterprise-wide infrastructure to support the work of diversifying UCSF spend. In November 2021, UCSF announced that it launched its first community investment program to support housing and minority-owned small businesses. This 3-year pilot program augments UCSF’s Anchor Institution Mission to address health equity through community economic support. Additively, in correspondence with the entire University of California system, the UCSF Langley Porter Psychiatric Institute encourages and seeks out minority, women, LGBT and disabled veteran business enterprises through its address of the UC Sustainable Procurement Guidelines Economically and Socially Responsible (EaSR) Spend goal.
