Racial Identity Development Models

Trainer(s)
Joyce McNickles

Description:
Race is a social construct categorizing people by perceived physical traits or ancestry, underpinning systemic racism. This hierarchy privileges white people and marginalizes people of color. While race is assigned externally, racial identity is the personal meaning attached to it.

This training covers racial identity development, showing how different groups form beliefs about race and racism. You'll examine case scenarios at various stages and learn strategies for managing tensions between groups at different identity development stages.
