Description: Cultural Competence is a life-long process requiring personal awareness, education, sharing of power and intentional actions to extend social justice and equity to all. This interactive training invites learners to reflect on their cultural identities, history, and experiences, and to actively consider how each of these elements can impact outcomes with clients. Participants will engage in individual, small and large group activities focused on Anti-Oppression and Anti-Racist outcomes.

*Seating is limited to 30 individuals on a first-come, first-served basis. As such, we ask that you register only if you plan to attend both sessions*
