Dr Crystallee Crain (she/her) invites you to attend her foundational training Cultural Humility in Practice. This training introduces participants to the framework of cultural humility, inspired by the work of Josepha Campinha-Bacote, Melanie Tervalon, and Jann Murray-García. This evidence-based approach emphasizes the importance of co-creating dynamic and generative relationships with individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds and different cultural experiences from your own. This could be in regards to a person’s race, ethnicity, class, education level, gender expression, sexual orientation, religion, mental health capacities or disability status, political affiliations, or regional association.
During this workshop Dr. Crain will work with participants to identify gaps in understanding, capacity for humility and emotional responsiveness as it relates to their professional practice. Through a participatory framed experience, participants will be able to heighten their efficacy in their work by understanding how their biases, perceptions, and worldview impact their service to the community.
All participants will receive access to Dr. Crain's workbook "Cultural Humility in Practice" digitally unless you received a hard copy at the conference.
