Description

We've done our research and we want to support you on your journey in learning about the impact of implicit bias and microaggressions. Join us for this important discussion facilitated by Kevin Duguette, P.H.D, on the challenges of implicit bias and microaggressions. We hope to deepen your understanding in explaining ways to help you recognize your own biases in efforts to increase awareness of a problem that by definition is outside of consciousness. This is an in-person event and food will be provided. Lastly, facilitator asked that you bring laptop/Chromebook if possible.
