03.25.22


The Center for Community Leadership and Nonprofit Excellence invites you to attend Urgency of Awareness: Creating an Inclusive Environment for Diverse Populations, a 2-day training program led by international presenter Jodi Pfarr in which attendees will learn how to work effectively with diverse populations. The training will take place on Wednesday, April 20th & Wednesday, May 4th from 2:00 – 5:00 PM.
Training Description: In today’s diverse work, our professional and personal experiences often require us to work effectively with diverse populations – whether that diversity is economic, racial, gender, etc. This unique training will allow participants to become conscious of and better understand their personal experiences while also being open to the complexities of other’s experiences. It empowers leadership to tap into talent regardless of background, and acknowledges and spans those diverse backgrounds. Participants leave with a very practical understanding of how to work effectively with diverse populations to help them better manage, supervise or volunteer within their organizations or communities. This training is intended to be a framework upon which initiatives are built to ensure inclusivity. This training program will take place over 2 sessions and attendance is required at BOTH sessions. This training program also comes with a complimentary copy of Jodi’s book, The Urgency of Awareness: Unlocking the Power within Individual, Organizational, and Community Efforts.
