Can I Be Authentically Me? Examining Disparities in Medical and Mental Health:
A Cultural Humility Training (2 CE Credits – Cultural Competence, Anti oppressive Practice) - Recorded

This interactive training will help mental health professionals look outside of their own lens to allow the clients they serve be authentically themselves and not be held or judged by societal standards of what is considered the "norm". We will take a deep look into healthcare disparities and systemic issues that prevent people of color from receiving access to quality and equitable care. This training will help professionals identify their biases and practice cultural competence and humility to be able to advocate and successfully work with this population. Participants will be provided case studies and engage in group discussions that will help them calibrate their lens to see clearly the societal/systemic impacts and how to provide the best care to their clients.
