Summary

Designed for individual practitioners and teams, join members of the Share Collaborative team and take the next or first steps on your Equity + Inclusion journey. As an individual practitioner, ensure you are providing services respectful of the person's self-ascribed identity; as a leader, address quiet quitting, turnover and enhance your culture of inclusivity and belonging.

Bring yourself or bring your team! If you provide direct support to served persons, colleagues, or are a leader of teams, this foundational session of Cultural Humility to Cultural Reverence will support you to begin or enhance your skill to deliver services and/or create a culture of inclusivity and respect. Support everyone to show up as their whole self — colleague or served person.

The goal of this exploration of Cultural Humility to Cultural Reverence is to enhance your ability to serve increasingly diverse client populations and work with increasingly diverse teams. In this interactive course, we will explore in dedicated conversations the four principles of Cultural Humility: Self-Reflection and Lifelong Learning, Client as Expert, Community as Expert and Institutional Self-Reflection and Investment + Modeling. This course will prepare you to disrupt the Continuum of Oppression by applying the 4-Principles of Cultural Humility to avoid bias, prejudice and 'isms (racism, orientation-ism, gender-ism and more).
