Integrating race and culture in evidence-based treatments should be at the center of our work. The recent racial uprising has thrust the importance of discussing the impact of racism on everyone’s lives.

Panelists of providers with both lived experiences personally and professionally join us in this webinar to share their expertise with us in this webinar.
