Implicit Bias Training

Event description
Funded by BSAS
Yes

This Implicit Bias Training has been designed by the African Diaspora Mental Health Association (ADMHA) to educate both the  individual and the organization about Implicit Bias as it relates to race.  There is a  clear emphasis of how not recognizing theses biases supports Racial and Ethnic  Disparities (RED) in both the individual and organizational structure.   This training aids in the removal of shame and the reduction of white fragility  when discussing race, and allows for a more expansive diagnosis when dealing  with racism at the organization level.  The implicit Bias approach uses the Person,  Role and System Model, and introduces the participants to the Accountability  Map. This training shows the participants that implicit bias is both predictive and  preventative. This training concludes by aiding individuals and organizations with  key strategies to engage when dealing with its own biases.
