Many of our communities and organizations are seeking to understand how stigma, discrimination and racism interact within our systems and personal behaviors, and distort individual and public health outcomes. This has created a focus on Implicit Bias and Diversity and Inclusion trainings. However, the research shows us that spotting unconscious bias in your own mind, in the moment, is almost impossible. So, how do we change our biases and our behaviors? Join us to explore and challenge implicit bias by working with the architecture of the brain, not against it. This training is for a general audience, which may include local and state government agencies, mental health and substance use treatment providers, and nonclinical organizations that wish to expand their TIROES knowledge. Each participant will receive a certificate of completion after the training. This training is $90 per participant.
Learning Objectives: 1) Understand the neuroscience behind cognitive bias and its impact on individuals and teams. 2) Recognize where organizational missteps happen when attempting to roll out cognitive bias mitigation. 3) Learn practical science-based approaches to hack your brain’s biased perceptions.
