Inclusion Training |
Tatiana Maida, Former Councilmember Courtney Rogaczewski, Trainer |
This Inclusion Training aims to provide Public Health Council members with a deeper understanding of inclusion in leadership spaces, as well as foundational skills and conditions to create a genuinely inclusive environment for everyone.
Objectives: • Define inclusion across all differences, what it is and what it is not. • Understand the importance and benefits of authentic inclusion for organizations and those that are committed to Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion work. • Increase the understanding of the relationship between Inclusion, Diversity and Equity and how they support each other. • Identify the difference between thoughts and actions, intention vs impact, when it comes to inclusion • Provide practical examples of the individual and organizational conditions to create inclusive environments. • Offer recommendations for measurement and evaluation – “what gets measured gets done.” • Move from inclusion to belonging.
Outcomes: Participants will: • Expand their understanding and knowledge of inclusion, as part of the EDI work. • Receive tangible and usable Do & Don'ts around language and environment when it comes to being Inclusive. • Develop skills that can be used to make everyone feel seen, acknowledged, and valued. • Reflect on changes that need to take place at a personal and organizational level to create environments of belonging. |
