The 5th annual Dr. Dale Blackstock Awards Ceremony was recently held at SUNY Downstate to honor a group of phenomenal women who have continued the legacy of service in celebration of the life of Dr. Dale Blackstock.

Among this year’s honorees were SUNY UFS Communications Chair Alithia Alleyne, who received the “Outstanding Service Award” and SUNY UFS Senator Anika Daniels-Osaze, Ed.D., MPH, recipient of the “Diversity Champion Award”.

The event’s keynote speech, “Women and Health Equity,” was delivered by Anika Daniels-Osaze, Ed.D., MPH, Associate Dean for Education in the School of Public Health and a Clinical Associate Professor in the Department of Health Policy and Management.
​
The Fifth Annual Dr. Dale Blackstock Award Ceremony honored 16 women in four recognition categories: the Dr. Dale Blackstock Award, Excellence in Faculty Service, Diversity Champions, and Outstanding Service.

​Dr. Blackstock, a native of Brooklyn earned an undergraduate degree in Biology at Brooklyn College and her medical degree from Harvard Medical School, thanks in part to strong mentors who helped guide her. After completing her residency and fellowship training, Dr. Blackstock’s first job was at Downstate/Kings County, where she served for many years in the Department of Internal Medicine and Division of Nephrology.  

​Dr. Blackstock was passionate about providing clinical care to the community she loved. She was an educator and a strong patient advocate. She also gave back by mentoring many students and faculty, especially young African-American women. One of those individuals was Dr. Carla Boutin-Foster, now Downstate’s Associate Vice President of Institutional Equity. Her family and those whose lives she touched are determined to carry on Dr. Blackstock’s legacy.
