Navigating Unconscious Bias

 

This training was presented on April 13, 2023

 

We know you don’t want to be biased, and we know that living in the world exposes everyone to negative stereotypes, which can lead to internalized, unintentional “unconscious bias.” This workshop is designed to provide terminology, a shared framework, and immediately implementable strategies to reduce personal bias and interrupt moments of bias. Participants can expect culturally-relevant real-life examples that resonate with their lived experiences and current reality.

 

Learners will:

  • Learn the causes and effects of bias
  • Learn at least two bias reduction strategies
  • Learn bias intervention strategies

 

Who should attend: All staff of family resource center (FRCs), child abuse prevention councils (CAPCs), and other family-serving organizations.
