Dr. Elba Moise, PhD (She/They/Ella/Ellex) will lead an interactive session titled "Cultivating Brave Conversations: Navigating Power Dynamics" from 2-4 PM on May 21st in Mission Hall 1406 followed by a networking opportunity from 4-5 PM.

This session is focused on engaging in difficult conversations related to DEIA. Participants will engage in small and large group discussions that promote a brave space, collaboration, support, and confidence.

In this dynamic session, you will learn how to:

• Recognize bias, structural racism, and sexism (+ other forms of oppressions) and its impact in clinical settings
• Respond to difficult conversations that stem from bias with radical listening and productive strategies
• Replenish by developing personalized self-care strategies related to racial and gender (+ other dimensions of identity) dynamics.
