A previous webinar discussed implicit bias as a key factor contributing to racial and ethnic health disparities, and the level of which this is experienced in the treatment of alcohol and substance abuse. Join this ask the expert session for a facilitated discussion and open forum with subject matter experts who will answer your practical questions regarding working with our implicit biases. Prior to the session, we will gather feedback from you about what you would like to learn about the topic from the experts.
