WhenThursday, February 16th, 2023, 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. WhereVirtual Event - Zoom Event DescriptionThroughout this course, learners will explore how systemic racism in Canada has created a mental health crisis for Black communities, and the urgency for those in and outside of private practice to see this crisis as a shared responsibility. The introduction to Africentric social work will provide learners with knowledge, skill, and confidence to become culturally responsive to Black mental health versus reactive, ensuring we safely invite all of one’s Black identity into care as we partner with them on their healing journey. Finally, in preparation for learners to become more culturally responsive to Black communities and Black mental health, space will be provided for learners to examine fears and biases that may be creating barriers to integrating anti-Black racism and Africentric social work into practice. Presented by: Simone Donaldson, MSW, RSW
