S24 SHARP Framework

SHARP Framework Workshop Series Overview

This 4-Day workshop has been developed to support child and family systems by adopting anti-racist and anti-oppressive practices to prevent trauma exposure and repair the trauma effects in the lives of Black and other non-Black families of color. This training is focused on deconstructing the human services sector by exploring the U.S. history of institutional racism and how it impacts all levels of society and helping participants reconstruct their understanding of the human services sector by utilizing the SHARP framework (Structural Oppression, Historical Context Analysis of Role, Reciprocity, and Power) as detailed in SHARP: A Framework for Addressing the Contexts of Poverty (Shaia, 2019). This framework is focused on mindset and practice shifts to improve how professionals serve their clients. This is intended to be an individual and group reflective process.
