This course is for BlPOC professionals working with system involved youth and families addressing Internalized Oppression. Internalized Oppression is a pervasive internalized racist structure replicated within the BIPOC community as a direct result of institutional racist structures within society. The main points of the training are:
- Provide an overview of the importance of providers tracking their somatic responses to internalize oppression,
- Identify how the provider’s internalized oppression and privileges effect conversations with youth and families,
- Provide space for the provider to identify three behaviors to shift to increase support to families challenged by internalized oppression.
