- Review the history of psychiatry in the U.S. and understand how structural racism has created today’s mental health disparities and its impact on mental health care delivery systems.
- Acknowledge and be sensitive to the needs of the increasingly diverse workforce and be trained to assist with the challenging personal and professional issues that arise in psychiatric service delivery systems.
- Educate psychiatric education leaders about how training programs can incorporate specific, culturally relevant, appropriate and responsive practices into the training environment throughout the entire training experience (medical school, residency/fellowship, supervision and lifelong learning experiences).
