In this trauma-informed workshop, participants will actively explore their personal identifiers (areas of privilege and areas of potential marginalization) alongside their potential bias. Through a lens of play, curiosity, and respect, participants will investigate how previous experiences and unconscious assumptions can impact dynamics at work and in life. Session will utilize engaging game play, active discussion, and an empathy-based model for understanding bias and relationship within our diverse world.

Key Takeaways:

• Inspect their own social identifiers and raise self-awareness of these identifiers through facilitated group interaction.
• Recognize internal biases and how these affect relationships at work and in life
• Discuss as a group, anti-bias techniques and how to use techniques from workshop in the real world

This workshop will be presented by Darci Burch, Director of Research & Training of ENACT, Inc.
