The goal of this training is to increase providers’ skill in effective outreach to communities whom identify as Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) so they are aware of and more likely to engage in behavioral telehealth opportunities. The training will integrate telehealth adaptations of trauma-focused and culturally-adapted interventions in working with BIPOC clients, with a special focus with BIPOC communities involved in Child Welfare. Finally, it also aims to offer strategies and practical tools to improve the quality of behavioral telehealth care and services to ensure they are responsive to diverse cultural behavioral health beliefs, values, practices, and preferred languages in order to decrease behavioral health disparities.
