The framework around “cultural humility” was developed in the 1990s by pediatrician Melanie Tervalon, MD, to train doctors and other medical professionals to set aside pre-conceived notions about their patients. While the concept of cultural humility was derived while examining and evaluating patient/practitioner relationships, the principles also apply to client/lawyer relationships. The cultural humility framework expands upon "cultural competency" in that it emphasizes self-reflection and life-long learning as well as addresses biases and power imbalances at both the individual and institutional levels. Join us for a panel discussion on how to engage in this critical practice while working with clients.
