The Cancer Support Community is pleased to invite you to join us on July 8 from 12-1 pm EST for the seventh session in a series called What’s In Your First Aid Kit? Resources and Tools to Help You Survive and Thrive.
How do you practice self-care when organizational culture perpetuates systemic racism? What are the limits of self-care for non-white colleagues in such an environment? This session will focus on racial battle fatigue and its impact on burnout for providers of color. Join us as we explore strategies to remain resilient, boost compassion satisfaction, and yes – still take care of yourself! Finally, we will explore the role of allies in mitigating situations that increase race-related stress in healthcare settings.
This is a non-credit education for personal enrichment.
