Diversity continues to serve as both a challenge and opportunity for society to reach its fullest potential. American communities continue to face issues that have an impact on individual and collective growth – including issues specific to diversity, justice-involved groups, and RSAT service providers. Corrections personnel consistently play a role in the application of justice and treatment. The purpose of this webinar is to provide a guide for understanding the history and development of diversity programming, the underlying causes of implicit biases, and the related consequences of misguided or nonexistent diversity policies. This webinar will delve into equity, diversity, and inclusion strategies useful for corrections personnel, and (more specifically) to programs targeted to individuals with substance use disorders. As the criminal justice system and corrections field continues to expand, it is important to expand diversity programs, provide training, and implement policies that incorporates diversity, equity, and inclusion as its central theme.
