Objectives:

After completing this training, participants will be able to:

  • Recognize how stereotypes, In Group/Out Group, and other concepts form the base of systems of privilege.
  • Recall the many forms of privilege that exist and how privilege is relative.
  • Review operations and systems to reduce the impact of dominant culture bias.
