<br />Topic: Diversity in the Workplace & Beyond
<br />Approved Presenter(s): David Saldana, TSJ
<br />Overview: This workshop is presented in two parts. The first is presented in power -point and dialogue form. The
<br />power -point addresses different issues related to diversity in the workplace such as gender, race, sexuality, social
<br />class, religion, etc. It first discusses what each of the issues are and then gives the interns an opportunity to give
<br />their opinion on either the accuracy of the terms, or their thoughts on each of the issues surrounding those terms.
<br />For example, when discussing gender and "gender roles', the trainees are given the opportunity to share their
<br />opinions or thoughts about what they either agree with, or disagree with, in relation to gender roles and so forth.
<br />Through an engaging activity, in the second part of the workshop, trainees explore their own identity and discussion
<br />focuses on valuing others' identities. The trainees are asked a series of questions and answer them by silently
<br />walking to and standing under signs that best fit them (e.g., gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, class,
<br />educational level, religion, work, family, neighborhood). For example, the instructor might ask, "I think about this
<br />aspect of my identity the most ". Silently, the trainees walk to whichever sign they think about the most. After
