PATIENTS & PUBLIC
Since the Skin of Color Society was founded in 2004 by visionary leader Dr. Susan C. Taylor, our organization has been fueled by the shared passion, dedication and vision of so many outstanding individuals—from nationally/globally recognized experts to emerging leaders in the field of skin of color dermatology.
We are grateful for everyone who has contributed their time, expertise and talent to the Society. Those combined efforts have elevated SOCS to be the world’s leading skin of color dermatology organization!”
As we commemorate Black History Month, we celebrate this year’s theme of Black Health & Wellness, which dovetails beautifully with the Skin of Color Society’s year-long theme,“Diversity in Action: Science, Healthcare and Society.”
This year’s Black History Month inspires us to reflect on the Skin of Color Society’s evolution as a leading global organization dedicated to advancing skin of color dermatology to achieve health equity and excellence in patient care –from our early roots, to our present-day stature and our trajectory into the future.

The Skin of Color Society’s 5th Annual Media Day, “Shaping the Future: What’s New and Next in Skin of Color Dermatology,” was a great success! This program was our first-ever virtual Media Day, after four previous events held in person in New York City since 2015.
Co-chaired by Valerie M. Harvey, MD, MPH, FAAD, SOCS President-elect, and Janiene Luke, MD, FAAD, Chair of the SOCS Technology & Media Committee, Media Day 2021 featured eleven nationally and globally recognized members who addressed key issues and developments in medical and aesthetic dermatology, healthcare, and society, of interest to people of color.
