You are invited to continue your journey to cultural competency by registering for A Critique of Power and Internalized Oppression: Applications for Churches that provides a critical look into the nature and uses of power and how the ways in which power is used in group and organizational settings can lead to psychological and emotional distress in affected persons. This session will also discuss the nature and impact of internalized oppression, who it affects and how its effects are manifested in group and organizational settings. The session will offer methods for exercising power in ways that removes internalized oppression and provides emotional and psychological healing for affected persons.

The Anti-Racism Task Force is pleased introduce the Cultural Competency Forum of the Wisconsin Annual Conference. Participation is free of charge to Wisconsin Conference clergy and laity.

Why Should You Attend:
Most diversity and inclusion efforts in an organization focus on particular observable demographics such as race, gender, age, etc. This presentation will expand the concept of diversity by addressing the more global concept of cultural competency within organizations. It will groom executives and leaders in skills to create a culturally competent organization that supports their mission and strategic goals.
