Advancing Racial Equity in Housing & Homeless Services, Part II
Online Course
Many people have read books and attended courses on racial equity, but often do not know how to apply the skills and concepts they have learned. This course will focus on applying foundational racial equity knowledge in housing, homeless, and human service delivery. This course is for those who have previously taken a foundational equity course and want to know how to move into applying the base skills and knowledge they already have attained.
We will focus on introspection on participation in systems, how to be a change agent, and how to shift culture in organizations. Participants will learn to spot the characteristics of white supremacy culture in their organizations, how to do a racial equity progressive assessment of their organization, application of cultural humility, and shifting power dynamics. Participants will end the course with the skills to apply foundational racial equity knowledge to their organizations and service delivery.
