MAHEC's equity and inclusion training begins with an overview of the concepts of structural oppression, unconscious bias, stigma, and how these issues are persistent problems for the provision of quality care. This training will provide an update on the current state of health and healthcare disparities on both a national and local level. Participants will gain tools to mitigate the perpetuation of health inequities through self-reflection, empathy, communication skills, and solidarity through allyship.

MAHEC engages in evaluation activities to better understand the impact of our programs. By registering for this course, you agree that we may use your personal information in evaluative research regarding this program. Any reports published will be de-identified and reported in aggregate format.

This program was designed to satisfy, in part, the North Carolina Medical Board's CME requirement for controlled substance prescribers. Per NCAC rules: As of July 1, 2017, all physicians (other than residents), physician assistants, nurse practitioners, podiatrists, and dentists who prescribe controlled substances must satisfy the controlled substance prescribing CE requirements as set forth by their licensing boards; requirements vary by discipline and board.

With support from Governor's Institute
