Objectives:
-The intercultural approach to diversity work is not generally taught in psychology, social work, or counseling graduate programs. Intercultural communication can serve as an important complement to traditional multicultural counseling and social justice approaches.
The field of intercultural communication provides various frameworks for strengthening our ability to engage with differences and diversity across situations. The developmental model used in intercultural communication can help pinpoint where we may be getting stuck or observing others getting stuck. Moreover, intercultural sensitivity is a precursor condition for intercultural effectiveness. The developmental model is a non-shaming approach that also provides participants a common language for growth in this area that can be applied to both individuals (therapist and client) and organizations. The presentation will end with a couple of key cultural concepts to further increase effectiveness.

The complex relationship between drug use and both labor and sex trafficking is a public health concern. The role of drugs in human trafficking is powerful and pervasive. Not only are those with drug abuse issues more vulnerable to being trafficked, but traffickers specifically target them. Traffickers can use drugs as a means of coercion. Many victims are forced to engage in criminality, such as illicit drug production and transportation. This presentation will explore the intersections of human trafficking and the drug culture, identify indicators of exploitation, discuss screening, and advanced clinical skills for the treatment of co-occurring mental health concerns.

Over the past few years and correlated to the overwhelming number of women who have participated in the #MeToo movement, there has been renewed attention to issues of sexual violence, which remains pervasive in our culture. This groundswell has created a refreshed platform for addressing gaps in service provider/clinician training for sexual assault response.
While statistics from the National Sexual Violence Resource Center show that 1 in 5 women and 1 in 7 men in the U.S. will face sexual assault at some point in their lifetime, very few counseling, social work and other social science educational programs have specific courses designed for training sexual assault response. Instead, service providers/clinicians learn this “on the job”; and strive to learn and grow to grow based on experiences.
During this interactive workshop, we discuss the basics of sexual assault and participants will learn to provide an adequate, timely and holistic response to sexual assault, while addressing barriers to disclosing and seeking services and learning about community resources available to those who have experienced sexual assault.

.Often discussed as separate issues, it is crucial to recognize the significant overlap of domestic violence and human trafficking. Both issues are fraught with misunderstandings in mainstream discourse. Victim blaming, rescuing, and white saviorism often get in the way of understanding the importance of survivors' voice, choice, safety, and healing. This interactive training will uncover the dynamics of intimate partner trafficking and its connection to other forms of human trafficking; help participants identify red flags and warning signs for intimate partner trafficking, and gain resources and tools for assessing and safely reporting intimate partner human trafficking.

Human trafficking is a major problem in Michigan. Awareness especially by those in medical roles will help reduce that problem. Many providers have unknowingly encounter victims and could be the difference between freedom and continued capture/torture. These sessions seek to provide tools for planning and preparation for frontline staff, hospitals and social workers to be able to identify, work with law enforcement and care for such patients.

Human Trafficking Awareness is a critical topic in social work. It is required as part of the continuing education component for license renewal and with good reason. The social work mission is inextricably linked with serving vulnerable populations of all types including children, the disabled, the elderly, people involved with the legal system, and people with substance use disorders. All of these populations are vulnerable to exploitation, abuse, and neglect of all types. Social workers in all different types of practice settings need to be aware of the nature and the extent of human trafficking and they need to be trained in methods to identify and help people who are being exploited in this manner
