Live Workshop: Suicide in Diverse Cultures – A Virtual Fireside Chat with the experts
This presentation will highlight suicide risk and prevention strategies as they relate to selected diverse cultures. Studies have shown a wide range of risk factors for suicide, that are different between cultures, understanding them can help clinicians with identifying the risks their patients are facing. In addition, and based on that, the effectiveness of intervention strategies for various ethnoracial or minority groups depends on which group the patient is from. As such, having a culturally sensitive discussion and being able to select the appropriate intervention or management method is vital in addressing suicide in diverse cultures.

Live Grand Rounds: Naming the Elephants in the Room: Overcoming Resistance to Achieve Health Equity
Despite decades of effort, racial and ethnic disparities in healthcare remain a persistent challenge. This interactive workshop will explore the root causes of this stagnation, with a particular focus on the often-unacknowledged resistance to change that hinders progress towards health equity. Through examination of the ongoing disparities in healthcare outcomes, we will identify the individual and organizational behaviors that obstruct equitable practices. Participants will learn to recognize these "elephants in the room" within their own institutions and develop strategies to dismantle these barriers, fostering a more inclusive and equitable healthcare environment.
