Like so many institutions, the Traumatic Stress Institute has set a strategic priority on embodying anti-racism in our organizational culture. Like others, we are inspired by the racial reckoning of the past year. And, like so many, we acknowledge the blind spots of our whiteness that have only now spurred us to make this a high priority.
We are determined to do better -- not by short term actions in reaction to the moment, but rather by steady, continuous, long-term learning, self-examination, and through--most importantly--action.
One of our first actions is the creation of new supplement to the Teaching Manual for Risking Connection called “Teaching Risking Connection with and Anti-Racist Lens.” In collaboration with an Advisory Committee made up of RC Trainers and Champions with diverse racial and ethnic identities, we are currently writing this supplement. It is NOT meant to replace the Teaching Manual, but rather offer insights and strategies to weave an anti-racist mindset into your teaching.
This important webinar will introduce the resource to our RC community. It will discuss the process that went into creation of the resource, review its content, and talk about how it can be used to deepen your RC teaching. PLEASE JOIN US!
