Recognizing and Responding to Microaggressions
October 31, 2023 @ 9:30 am - 11:30 am
Recently there has been much discussion about microaggressions, the subtle acts of exclusion that many people routinely experience. This interactive, virtual training will explore the ways that implicit bias – including microaggressions – manifest in our lives and impact our relationships with others. Through case studies and discussion, participants will deepen their understanding of implicit bias, learn how to identify microaggressions, and investigate strategies for responding effectively to microaggressions that they experience and commit. Participants will also learn about the NJ Law Against Discrimination and how microaggressions can contribute to a hostile work or school environment.
Register for October 31 from 9:30am-11:30am
