Every one of us was raised in various social environments that informed us about our own identities and the identities of others, including skin color, body size, sexual and gender identity, socioeconomic class, and other cultural identities that impact our lives.
This Cultural Humility training provides participants with opportunities to reflect on how our cultural identities impact our unconscious and implicit biases. Having the courage to explore our own identities and excavate our learned biases helps ensure that our communication and behavior are consistent with our values and demonstrate respect for all with whom we interact.
