This panel focuses on the lived experiences of people dedicated to fostering antiracist and culturally responsive care in organizations utilizing CBT. The panelists will share what they have learned in roles as leaders and directors in group practices and clinics; consultants on DEI and antiracist practice; and trainers of culturally responsive CBT. Panelists will discuss challenges, successes, stuck places, the joys, and the barriers overcome in moving toward more antiracist, equitable, accessible, and socially just practice. Through sharing our stories and experiences, we hope to both inspire attendees to take action in their organizations and also provide them with practical ideas they could take to move their organization ahead on their antiracist journey. Presenters will discuss topics such as: challenges of providing treatment for racial trauma and models for centering this in practice; incorporating measures of racism and discrimination into assessment and treatment; experiences training community mental health providers to deliver CBT that has both high fidelity and also is responsive to the cultural context and identities; how to bring antiracist work into all-white or highly privileged groups and how to address lapses into privilege as an individual or group; running clinics that provide culturally responsive and accessible EBPs; methods for structuring supervision and training to address these topics; creating culturally responsive forms; and engaging with this work across hierarchies and identities present within organizations.
