The White Coats Black Doctors Foundation is a nonprofit (501c3) organization whose purpose is to increase diversity in the medical profession by supporting the development of future Black physicians. The White Coats Black Doctors Foundation, Inc. (White Coats Black Doctors, WCBD) is a nonprofit organization created in 2015 by five Black medical students. ​Because Black men and women remain under-represented in the physician workforce, our mission is to increase diversity in the medical profession, specifically by supporting the development of future Black physicians. We aim to create a culture that realizes the benefit of an assembly of health professionals as varied and diverse as the population it serves.
