This training will demonstrate that Cultural Humility is the best approach to supportive care for system-involved youth and their families. Every person is a unique combination of cultural traits that are influenced by personal and familial experiences of trauma, grief, joy, identity, and purpose. Thus, every individual has a personal culture that cannot be taught through bullet points, but can only be understood through the lens of Cultural Humility. For people in a supportive role, a mindset of Cultural Humility recognizes the person we are caring for as the expert on their personal culture, and acknowledges the individuality and unique experiences of system-involved youth and their families. This is a virtual training session offered on Zoom. Participants will be informed through presenter instruction, self-reflection, and exploration of their personal culture. To increase participant engagement and content retention, the presenter will utilize the chat box, annotation features, guided participant discussion, a virtual grieving style activity, small group sharing utilizing breakout rooms, and Questions & Answers.
