Class Description

Understanding Minority Stress - How to Cope with the New DEI Regulations As mental health professionals and social workers, it is imperative that we are aware of the multiple marginalized identities that our client has. Multiple minority stress and the existence of intersectionality are topics that need to be uncovered by those who seek to be fair and empathetic to others. Those who take this course will be more able to assess the many marginalized identities that exist and the discrimination that ensues. Uncovering one’s own unconscious bias is essential to best engage with all the people that you serve. Course Objectives As a result of this course the participant will be able to: Explore the identities in our society that have less privilege and power than others Differentiate between race, culture and religion to define identities Identify the assumptions and stereotypes that exist within themselves and society when it comes to those identities Define the term intersectionality, its derivation and the ramifications of how it impacts the mental health of our clients Build an instrument whether it be an intake form or exercise that will make you as the professional aware of the client’s marginalized identities About the Instructor Diane taught for 38 years in Rockland County, NY.
