Rooted in trauma-responsive, justice-centered practice, this training examines how silence, clinical, organizational, cultural, and systemic, can reinforce harm and perpetuate inequity across all levels of social work practice. Participants will explore the intersection of ethics, power, trauma, policy, and systemic accountability through a framework that integrates micro, mezzo, and macro practice. Using applied case examples, this training challenges participants to critically examine what ethical action requires in real-world practice settings using an ethical responsiveness model.

Designed as a welcoming, low-pressure space for reflection, grounding, mindfulness, and connection, this weekly gathering offers social workers and students an opportunity to intentionally care for themselves alongside community.

Join the discussion with NASW President Yvonne Chase; Aviva Vincent, Ph.D., LSW, Assistant Professor and Veterinary Social Worker at Cleveland State University School of Social Work; and Thomas Favale, DVM, LMSW, a veterinarian, social worker and certified coach and assistant professor at Lincoln Memorial University.

This webinar examines the intersection of trauma, culture, and systemic inequity in mental health care delivery. Drawing on real-world case studies, interactive discussion, and clinical frameworks, participants will explore how trauma-informed and culturally responsive practices are not simply clinical techniques — they are acts of social justice. Through the lens of Health Equity, clinicians will examine the structural forces that create barriers to care, challenge deficit-based clinical language, and identify concrete strategies to transform their practice from the micro to the macro level. Helen's Project serves as a living example of what equitable, community-centered behavioral health care looks like in action.
