You’ve written a statement in support of the Black community. So, what’s next? In this episode, I challenge you to consider several areas where you can make personal and organizational changes to address racial injustices. I address the importance of reflecting on your identity development and socialization; how your definition of work and career can influence your approach to serving clients and students; understanding how history impacts your work; and the importance of looking at data and listening to the people you serve and your colleagues. I also challenge you to think about your commitment and measures of accountability. There’s a lot to consider in this episode, so get ready to reflect and act! Download the Moving Beyond the Statement Guide to follow along.
