This training will focus on how a social justice orientation is essential to dismantling organizational racism. We will begin by providing the historical context of racism at the institutional level with a focus on social service programs. This will allow us to understand the unique characteristics that maintain racism and how to produce meaningful change on an organizational level and in the lives of the youth, families and communities we serve. This training will explicate the ways that organizational racism impacts people we support and in what ways we can adopt anti-racist practices to remedy this.

If possible, please keep your webcams on to help keep us all engaged!

Trainers: Issac Carter, Moriah Johnson, Ashley Ritter
