10:00 AM - 1:00 PM EST
This presentation will NOT be recorded for playback review.
In this comprehensive workshop, participants will delve into the intricate nuances of implicit biases and their pervasive impact on various facets of our lives, specifically within the realms of the workplace, educational institutions, and the healthcare system. The primary objective of this class is to foster an understanding of how unconscious attitudes and stereotypes, stemming from implicit biases, can subtly infiltrate and influence interactions and decisions.
The workshop aims to initiate a dialogue that not only sheds light on the origins of implicit biases but also explores their intricate connections to societal norms, cultural influences, and individual experiences. By cultivating awareness about the roots of these biases, participants will gain valuable insights into ways bias can manifest in everyday scenarios, contributing to an enriched comprehension of its multifaceted nature.
Particular emphasis will be placed on the healthcare setting, where implicit biases can significantly affect clinical treatment. The class will explore scenarios where biases may inadvertently influence healthcare outcomes. By fostering awareness and dialogue surrounding these issues, the workshop aims to equip mental health professionals with the tools and insights necessary to mitigate the impact of implicit biases in clinical practice.

The Food-Mood Connection: Nutritional and Lifestyle Hacks for Mental Health and Wellbeing
Physical and Mental health professionals cannot ignore the impact that various forms of bias play into the barriers to and disparities experience in the delivery of care. For instance, the concerns of women who present for treatment are more often ignored than those of men who present for treatment. And, the concerns of Black women, in particular, are ignored at their peril. This course explains the role of implicit and explicit bias in defining the systems that provide physical and mental health care in America. This course also includes strategies for individual professionals, and professionals in collaboration, to use in order to reduce disparities in access to and delivery of physical and mental health care services. This course meets the “Implicit Bias Training” requirements outlined under Michigan State Public Health Code.
