Social Justice in School Psychology: Why and For Whom

In this presentation, Dr. Worrell will share some thoughts about social justice and suggest that our actions in support of social justice need to be broader in focus and longer-term. Social justice needs to move beyond universities and school psychology syllabi into schools and classrooms serving low-income students and students of color whose achievement is below where it should be.

The Microintervention Workshop

The Microintervention Workshop aims to increase self-reflection, awareness and critical consciousness. Participants will learn to identify microaggressions and active coping response strategies that can be used to disarm, dismantle, and effectively defend against daily experiences of microaggressions. The workshop emphasizes healing and self-worth and is built on the principles of the Microintervention taxonomy and framework that was published by Sue, Alsaidi et al., 2019 in the American Psychologist. The training was developed by Sarah Alsaidi for her dissertation research, in which she implemented the training at three different participating sites, and evaluated its efficacy through a pre and post longitudinal design.
