“It is not possible to be a trauma-informed organization without also committing to a culture of diversity, equity and inclusion.” ~ Trauma Informed Organizational Change Manual, ITTIC, October 2021, socialwork.buffalo.edu/ittic
We're delighted to announce another offering in our free community education training series.
The Cycle of Socialization and Oppression
In this introductory session, participants will learn about the ways our socialization impacts the lens through which we view everything around us, how we are all affected by issues of oppression, and how we can alter our view to an equity lens.
Learning Objectives:
- Reflect on our own socialization and identity in our society
- Understand the historical context for equity
- Begin thinking about what solidarity looks like
- Understand equity as a skill as well as a concept
