This live web event has ended. Thank you for attending.

Description

This presentation will equip participants with an integrated change management approach that grounds the 5D Cycle of Appreciative Inquiry (Define, Discover, Dream, Design & Deliver) in Black Feminism and Radical Imagination to serve as a conduit for creating equitable care. The interactive format will review what’s wrong with traditional racial equity quality improvement initiatives and describe the benefits of applying a Black Feminist and Radical Imagination lens. Participants will reflect on ways to apply this approach to Centering Pregnancy programs and develop three goals for their work.
