NCBI Diversity Workshop

Date: April, 24th 2012 8:30 am - 4:00 pm

NCBI’s (National Coalition Building Institute) award winning Welcoming Diversity / Prejudice Reduction Workshop is a one-day, experiential program that consists of a series of incremental activities that helps participants to:

• Celebrate their similarities and differences, and recognize the misinformation they have learned about various groups, including their own,
• Learn about and reevaluate personal attitudes and behaviors that are based on the impact of prejudice and discrimination,
• Claim pride in their group identities,
• Understand the personal impact of discrimination through the telling of stories, and
• Learn hands-on tools for dealing effectively with offensive remarks and behaviors.
