A lifetime of experience and cultural history shapes how we think, view the world, and interact with people. Research has shown that most people hold unconscious, implicit assumptions that influence how they engage with other people. Usually seen as something that affects individuals, implicit bias has significant impacts on institutional practices and structures. This webinar will explore different kinds of implicit bias and offer tools to address it personally and organizationally. This training satisfies the one-hour California MCLE requirement for a focus on implicit bias and the promotion of bias-reducing strategies to address how unintended biases regarding race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, or other characteristics undermine confidence in the legal system.
