Professional Connections: Information Session & CE Workshop

WORKSHOP DETAILS

Black Leaders: Using Our Authentic Voices provides an opportunity for participants to develop an understanding of racial trauma and how people of African ancestry have internalized white supremacist messages that prevent us from speaking our truths and stopping harm by white colleagues. This workshop will guide participants to tap into the strength and power within our DNA. We will explore Dr. Kenneth Hardy’s Privilege and Subjugated Task (PAST) Model, specifically focusing on the Tasks of the Subjugated. Participants will develop an understanding of “authentic voice”, begin to identify helpful language when using their authentic voices, and practice using authentic voice responses based on real life scenarios.

Continuing education (CE) certificates are available from Theratel Training Institute for social workers, mental health counselors and marriage and family therapists. The workshop is approved for 3 CE hours.
