Inspired by our commitment to deconstruct white privilege and address the issues of racism that permeate the child maltreatment field, the Commission to Eliminate Systemic Racism and Implicit Bias in the Child Maltreatment Field will launch a Reading Club in 2021. Led by a diverse group of professionals, topics such as racism in psychotherapy, recognizing micro-aggressions in child maltreatment work, and addressing white supremacy culture, will be discussed. Please join us for what are sure to be important conversations as we share and reflect on the critical issue of promoting racial justice. The reading club is free to attend, regardless of APSAC membership.
