In addition, this workshop will focus on strategies that can be employed at both practice and organizational levels to foster change and ultimately create more welcoming and inclusive environments for clients.

This workshop is a 3-hour online facilitated discussion. It includes a participant workbook, reflective activities, brainstorming and case studies.
