The Summer Institute Presents:
Promoting Empowerment within Racially and Culturally Stressful Spaces
Using the REACH Model to Help Clients of Color Heal, Cope, and Thrive!
In-person Workshop
Friday, June 27, 9am – 4pm,. Midwestern University, Downers Grove, IL

Racial and cultural stresses unfortunately continue to be social, emotional, and cognitive stressors that persons of color (POCs) are tasked with learning to navigate in their daily lives. However, it can be hard, as clinicians, to know how to efficiently conceptualize the impacts of such stresses in ways that clarify avenues for offering support and healing. In this workshop, attendees will learn to use components of the Racial, Ethnic, And Cultural Healing Unifying Principles (REACH UP – DeLapp & Gallo, 2022; DeLapp & DeLapp, 2024) to conceptualize and then flexibly adapt their treatment plans for the impacts of racial and cultural stresses when working with POCs.
