Child Welfare Training 2

The Wayne State University School of Social Work Office of Continuing Education invites child welfare workers, family preservation workers, foster care workers and adoption services to attend the second of four specialized child welfare trainings. This training will explore cultural humility and cultural competence. It will examine the basic concepts of cultural competence and cultural humility, the impact each has on the child and family systems of care and the concept of positionality when providing services. As a result of this workshop, participants will be prepared to recognize implicit biases which contribute to discrimination; plan for improved practice related to cultural competence; nurture intrapersonal, interpersonal and system level cultural humility simultaneously; and develop awareness of personal cultural beliefs, while examining perceptions of cultural differences.

Attendees can obtain 3 CE's upon completion of the training, payment receipt and passing of the post-training quiz. Seating is limited and preference will be given to child welfare workers.
