Social Determinants of Health: Intersecting Factors in Ethical Service Delivery

May 2 @ 1:00 pm - 4:30 pm

$75

REGISTER HERE

Using an ethics lens, this training will examine school, community, and treatment considerations for serving culturally diverse individuals who have historically been marginalized because of intersecting identities such as race, gender expression, affectional orientation, immigrant status, and others. Research shows that culturally marginalized populations suffer disproportionally from a range of psychosocial disparities and stressors that affect their engagement with school, treatment, and community-based organizations. The range of disparities can include physical and emotional health, housing, finances, education, and others. This workshop will be helpful for professionals to understand the impact of these stressors and work more effectively and ethically with these realities.

Learning objectives

  1. Clarify implicit bias and its impact.
  2. Review Social Determinants of Health.
  3. Analyze key factors in intersecting identity stress injury & trauma.
  4. Consider ways to incorporate these factors when developing interventions for effectively and ethically working with diverse individuals.
