Class 1

Human Trafficking of People with Disabilities

10:00 AM - 1:00 PM EST

THIS WEBINAR WILL NOT BE RECORDED AND WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR PLAYBACK

The world's largest minority group is people with disabilities, and this populations experiences crime, including human trafficking, at far higher rates than their counterparts without disabilities. Yet people with disabilities are often left out of programming, education, and services.

Many service professionals also report not feeling comfortable or equipped to work with people with disabilities, despite the reality that they will likely interact with people with disabilities regularly. This presentation provides an overview of disabilities , an introduction to human trafficking, and guidance on how to interact and service human trafficking victims who have disabilities.

This class meets the DC Key Public Health Priorities criteria for DC licensees.

Class 2

Death By A thousand Nicks: Healing The Wounds of Racial Trauma - Diagnosis & Treatment

1:45 PM - 4:45 PM EST

Professor Alvin Poussaint described the cumulative impact of microaggressions as “death by a thousand nicks”. What might seem small and insignificant can become ingrained into the very fiber of one’s being, causing the body to live in a constant state of alert.

This workshop will utilize the conventional and expanded Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) studies to discuss how racial trauma impacts the physical, social, and psychological health of individuals and communities. Participants will recognize systemic oppressions, confront implicit bias and engage in dialogue around racial healing, empowerment and equity.
