The first session, October 3 from 6:30 – 8:00 pm, will provide a brief history of racism and set the foundation of health disparities. The second session, November 7 from 6:30 – 8:00 pm, will address biases and understanding how “you bring you” into the room with patients, along with some techniques on how to upfront those biases and begin trust building. Each session is approved for 1.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™.
