The views and opinions expressed by this presenter in this lecture are their own, and do not represent the views of Sheppard Pratt.

This presentation will provide an Indigenous perspective on the concepts of justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI). Within the dialogue about societal and systemic concepts, basic considerations will be provided to guide a clinician or organization’s work with Indigenous people, specifically focusing on American Indian/Alaska Native populations and communities. In order to partner effectively at the individual through community levels, professionals and organizations must engage in a manner that is critical, reflective, responsive, and humble. The first steps in the process are to develop self-awareness and assess the level of commitment to develop partnerships that are mutually beneficial, anti-oppressive, and supportive of healthy futures for Indigenous peoples.

Target Audience

This activity is intended for psychologists, social workers, counselors and other mental health professionals. 

Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of this activity, attendees will be able to:

  1. Integrate an Indigenous perspective into one’s own formulation of practice concepts around Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion.
  2. Distinguish key differences and similarities between mainstream or emerging clinical practices and Indigenous Ways of Knowing and Healing.
  3. Redesign one’s own conceptualizations of cultural competence, cultural responsiveness, cultural relevance and cultural humility as applied from an Indigenous framework.
