Building Racial Equity Workshop: Presented in Partnership with Race Forward
Cost: $200 | NOTE: Registration for this event is being processed by Race Forward – Annual Meeting attendees must register for the preconference separately. Spots are limited – register today!
SECF is excited to offer Annual Meeting attendees the opportunity to participate in Building Racial Equity, a preconference event taking place Monday, November 9!
This workshop is offered in partnership with Race Forward, one of the country’s leading racial justice organizations. In partnership with communities, organizations, and sectors, Race Forward builds strategies to advance racial justice in our policies, institutions, and culture.
Race Forward has reserved a limited number of spots for SECF members at its November 9 Building Racial Equity workshop, an interactive training for those who wish to sharpen their skills and strategies to address systemic racism and advance racial equity. Unlike “diversity trainings,” which primarily focus on interpersonal relations and understanding, these trainings emphasize how to challenge and change institutional racial inequities.
- Components of the Building Racial Equity training include:
- Racial Justice Values & Vision
- Key Concepts: Different Dimensions of Racism and Systems Analysis
- Countering Implicit Bias
- Opportunities to Advance Racial Equity
- Build a clear understanding of key concepts such as racial equity and structural racism.
- Learn to talk about race constructively within their organizations and with their constituents.
- Gain tools and practices for counteracting racial bias in their work and practices.
- Identify opportunities and next steps for applying concepts and strategies to advance racial equity.
