Do You See Me? Exploring Equity Work and What that Means in a Workplace
March 15 @ 12:30 pm - 2:00 pm
Presented by:
Dominic Smith, Equity & Cultural Proficiency Consultant
Through an exploration of how race impacts the provision of community service in the Baltimore area, this workshop seeks to deepen participants’ understanding of the way race, culture, and power shape our work.
Within the context of racial equity and cultural proficiency training, participants will have the opportunity to engage strategically in ways that will deepen the work of racial justice and equity in their respective organizations.
Participants in this training will:
- Learn what “equity” and “equity work” mean and its relationship to antiracism
- Reflect on what each of us as individuals can do to participate in meaningful and permanent change
- Explore our individual responsibility as a service provider in making a more equitable workplace for all
- Develop an action plan, both as an individual and as a community member and employee
