Cultural Humility
Becoming culturally competent and practicing cultural humility are essential when servicing people. Cultural humility encompasses awareness of one’s own worldview and how it impacts our interactions, developing a positive attitude around diversity, and intentionality to want to change. It is a lifelong process that requires one to critically self-evaluate and self-critique.
Implicit Bias
Whether we want to believe it or not we are all guilty of being biased. Our life experiences and worldviews, shape who we are, how we engage with other cultures, and what we think about race, gender, sexual orientation, gender roles, and so on. These factors determine the lens through which we view society. This course aims to help recognize and acknowledge your own biases and encourage you to intentionally explore how your biases impact your decisions and the ways you provide treatment to service users.
