Strength-Based Approach and Centering Community Agency in Grant Writing

Please join ASPHN for a webinar with Dr. Anne Phibbs, Founder and President of Strategic Diversity Initiatives. Even with the best of intentions to impact positive change, public health professionals often fail to recognize the ways in which our biases prevent us from acting as allies to the communities we serve. If we only see the problems and deficiencies within communities, we perpetuate constructs like saviorism, classism, and racism, while hindering our ability to partner and promote health and wellbeing. In this workshop, we address the shortcomings of a ‘deficit approach,’ explore allyship through strength-based communications and how to center community agency in grant writing.
