Topic: Promoting Racial Equity and Disrupting Bias: What Does Infant Mental Health Have To Do With It?
Description: What role do we have as infant mental health professionals in closing racial disparities and reducing bias? We will come together for important conversations about racial equity and how personal, mindful transformation can translate into effective practice and policy. Using Infant Mental Health frameworks and the Diversity-Informed Tenets for infants, children and families as an anchor, we will practice using 3 multiple lenses of personal, interpersonal and systemic approaches.
