About the webinar
Presented by the Provincial Support Program (PSSP) at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH).
Join us for a special virtual presentation by CAMH Vice President of Clinical Operations and Chief Nursing Officer Dionne Sinclair as she shares insights on how mental health and substance use workers can increase cultural awareness.
Throughout the presentation, Dionne will draw on the Intercultural Development Continuum (IDC), which describes five orientations toward cultural difference and commonality arrayed along a spectrum, and share ideas that can help nurture intercultural mindsets.
Participants will engage in an exercise exploring how their colleagues may feel navigating a new and unfamiliar space. Attendees will also receive the Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI) as a tool to improve their intercultural sensitivity.
Date: Wednesday, July 19th
Time: 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. EDT
The event will take place virtually on WebEx.
