There is an urgent need to diversify the physician workforce in obstetrics and gynecology to serve a diverse patient population and mitigate disparities in care. There is a paucity of data on how to improve recruitment of individuals from underrepresented minoritized groups to the field of obstetrics and gynecology. This article outlines important steps for sharing the department's commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion; addresses ways to attract a diverse applicant pool; and reviews the importance of and need to perform a holistic review of applicants. This commentary also shares some approaches to support faculty and trainees that may lead to sustained increases in diversity. Using this framework, the authors successfully increased the diversity of their obstetrics and gynecology residency program.

Although global neonatal mortality rates have significantly decreased, Black infant mortality in the US continues to be a major issue. This study identifies, assesses, and illustrates women’s views on infant mortality and the resources needed to address the problem. Women of diverse demographic backgrounds were recruited via purposive sampling, with 91 participating. Seventy percent of participants were aged 18 to 39 (n = 64), and forty three percent lived in Indiana (n = 39). Access to care, sleeping issues, supporting breastfeeding, awareness, affordability challenges, healthcare provider factors, and creating sustainable programs and policies to address infant mortality emerged as prominent themes in the data. This study highlights the importance of cultural congruency in addressing maternal and child health issues, emphasizing the need for stakeholder involvement to ensure interventions are acceptable, practical, and sustainable.
