Overview
Cultural Competency is a foundational ethical standard for all helping professionals. Although how can one ever become “competent” in a culture that is not their own? While good intentioned, this creates a dynamic that sets the clinician as the expert and the client as “the other” – implying that the provider knows better than the client, their experience, and their needs. In recent years, a conceptual shift to practicing cultural humility to build honest and trustworthy relationships with clients has been happening in multiple sectors of public health. The practice of cultural humility is a life-long self-reflective inquiry, and this training will offer the opportunity for participants to begin or continue this journey.
By Attending Our Workshop, You Will Be Able To:
- Describe the movement from Cultural Competency to Cultural Humility.
- Analyze the ways in which their own identity has been shaped by their own cultural upbringing and perspective, leading to internalized bias.
- List examples of systems of oppression and its relationship to clinical practice settings.
- Identify different locations of identity – including historically included and excluded groups.
- Assess their own cultural, racial, and socioeconomic stories and how this affects their personal and professional lives in the present.
