Centering Racial Justice  in Clinical Ethical Decision-making, 5 April | Event in Portland | AllEvents.in About the event Centering Racial Justice in Clinical Ethical Decision-making
Center racial justice in clinical ethical decision-making. Facilitated by Tori Lopez, LCSW & Zach Thornhill, LCSW.

About this Event

IN THE WAKE OF THE COVID PANDEMIC, with its economic upheavals, violent impacts on communities of color, and the global rise of political extremism, helping professionals continue to navigate the damaging long-term impacts on their clients’ lives. These include worsening mental health conditions, an increase in addictions, as well as marital and relationship breakdowns. Agencies lack resources to meet urgent needs in the communities they serve, creating painful ethical dilemmas for professionals.

Increasingly it is imperative for helping professionals to center racial justice in the ways they work, particularly when it comes to clinical ethical decision-making. How do we deepen our commitment to racial justice beyond the usual statements about cultural competency and social justice? How do we revise and reinvigorate our commitment to being anti-racist practitioners? Contemporary thinking in anti-racist and anti-oppressive practices provide innovative frameworks for moving in this direction.

Facilitated by Tori Lopez, LCSW and Zach Thornhill, LCSW, this one-day, in-person, scenario-driven workshop provides a forum for helping professionals to deepen their commitment to racial justice. It provides an ethical decision-making model that centers race as it helps practitioners resolve ethical dilemmas related to the ongoing ripple effects of the pandemic era.

OBJECTIVES

By the end of this in-person, scenario-driven workshop, participants will

  1. Appreciate and understand the ways codes of ethics inform professional decision-making and behavior in multiple fields of practice;
  2. Critically examine clinical codes of ethics to explore ways they perpetuate, as well as dismantle, white supremacist culture;
  3. Increase their self-awareness of the interplay of personal and cultural values and clinical ethical decision-making;
  4. Frame their ethical decision-making within a model of anti-racism; and
  5. Expand and deepen their personal and professional commitments to being anti-racist practitioners.
