Is Diversity Training Enough? Cultivating Critical Consciousness in Clinical Practice

CE Hours 1.5

About this live event

In light of the growing demand for social justice and anti-racist practice in the United States, it is crucial for clinical practitioners to understand how to cater to the needs of diverse populations and create a space where clients feel empowered in their own identities, self-development, and engagement. During this presentation, I will discuss a research study that examined how healthcare professionals perceive diversity, particularly in terms of race and gender differences, and their involvement in diversity training, resources, policies, and initiatives. I encourage fellow clinical practitioners to prioritize social justice and will provide recommendations on how we can bring about meaningful change when working with client populations. Practical implications of this approach include fostering open dialogue on social justice, embracing anti-racist action and Intersectionality in practice, and offering support and guidance for engaging in these conversations with clients and among ourselves.

Learning Objectives

  • Apply skills such as self-reflection and critical analysis to maintain and develop a racial perspective.
  • Identify strategies to incorporate anti-racism and social justice practices within your work.
  • Explain the implications for your practice and how to provide comprehensive training and resources for healthcare professionals and social workers.
