LUNCH & LEARN: This intermediate-level training builds upon previous implicit bias and microaggressions workshops. During this training, a review of previously learned concepts will occur as participants delve deeper into practical applications centered around implicit bias and microaggressions. Facilitators will engage learners through dialogue, application, and critical reflection, founded on the principles of building individual and group efficacy. Additionally, tools will be provided to assist in mitigating implicit bias and microaggressions. Growth will be assessed via pre- and post-test assessments; this tier-two programming fits within the larger scope of ongoing social justice trainings.

Learning Outcomes - Participants will be able to:

Analyze implicit/unconscious bias and examine how it informs individual, organizational and systemic actions and impact
Evaluate the use of differentiated and individualized tools in the process of interrupting personal and organizational biases
Implement strategic frameworks to counteract harmful and/or unhelpful biases
