1.5 CEs for LCSW/LSW and LCPC/LPC
$20 for CEs, $10 for no CEsThis webinar invites participants to deepen their understanding of how cultural narratives and personal and collective histories shape the ways we see ourselves and others. Together, we will explore how these forces can reinforce “us-versus-them” dynamics and contribute to inequality within institutions and communities. Participants will also be encouraged to reflect critically on their own social location, including experiences of othering and areas of privilege, as a way to build greater self-awareness. Through this process, this session aims to support the development of more thoughtful, responsible, and justice-oriented approaches to engaging with clients across diverse cultural contexts. This webinar will be presented in an interview-style format and will cover the cultural competency requirement for LCSW/LSW and LCPC/LPC licenses in the state of Illinois.
