The Patient Navigator Training Collaborative is proud to host Cerise Hunt MSW of the Rocky Mountain Center for Public Health Practice for this workshop on cultural competency.
During this 7 hour session participants will learn techniques on how to work effectively in multi-cultural settings. The goal is to make clear that cultural competence is an active and ongoing process that one attempts to aspire rather than achieve. Participants will gain understanding in the following:
- To be active in the process of becoming aware of personnel assumptions about human behavior, values, biases, and preconceived notions. As professionals we must shift from being culturally unaware to being culturally aware
- The importance of creating policies and procedures that enables organizations to work effectively cross culturally. Learn to develop and incorporate culturally relevant and appropriate programs, materials and interventions
