Equity in Practice:<\/b><\/span><\/b>
\n<\/b><\/span>A FREE, two-day, virtual \u201chow-to\u201d training with Dr. Anu Taranath<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Do you want to get better at talking about race and other social issues? Would you like to grow your skills around disrupting bias and increase your capacity to navigate any associated discomfort? Join Dr. Anu Taranath for an opportunity to reflect and practice in a safe, non-judgmental environment.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Through conversation and scenario role-play, attendees will be able to recognize and positively respond to interpersonal situations that deal with race, ethnicity, gender and\/or cultural biases. We will practice civic engagement and consensus building, and bring the concepts of equity and social justice into our everyday lives.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
The training is free; however, registration and attendance on both days are required. \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
