The CCCEC logo symbolizes the interface between two people with a dashed line. Each person is a "nucleus" of intersecting parts composed of ethnicity, gender, race, sexual identity, class, age, etc. Each is surrounded by concentric circles composed of family, communities and history—all of which impact the interaction between self and other.

CCCEC Web site was developed in conjunction with support from the Office for Diversity and Community Partnership at Harvard Medical School (HMS). The Office for Diversity and Community Partnership was created to promote increased recruitment, retention and advancement of underrepresented minority faculty at HMS and to oversee all diversity activities involving HMS faculty, trainees, students and staff
