About the webinar
In this workshop, we address racism, classism, LGBTQIA+2, gender equity, age and disability, and faith. We unpack the intersectionality that impacts individuals and their communities. While we acknowledge the difference, we identify multifaceted methods to reduce social tensions.
Goals and Objectives
- To explore diversity, equity, and social justice as a continual improvement in social services.
- Uncover the complexities of identities by first taking an introspect of ourselves
- Apply this to our social service practices.
