Course Description

Racial trauma, a continuing consequence of historical trauma, has rendered an excessive adverse impact in African American communities.

The purpose of this workshop is to provide tools for clinicians working with African American individuals, families, and communities by utilizing culturally specific and evidence-based practices to identify and address racial trauma. Participants of this workshop can expect an interactive experience coupled with an authentic, warm, and safe place to discuss racial trauma.
