DESCRIPTION:← Back\n \n| \nMay 28\n@\n10:00 am\n–\n4:00 pm \n| \n£100.00 – £150.00 \nRacial disproportionality in the criminal justice system continues to be a significant challenge\, affecting the treatment and outcomes of Black and global majority young people. Unconscious bias plays a crucial role in decision-making processes\, influencing risk assessments\, sentencing\, and rehabilitation opportunities. This course\, part of our Courageous Conversations series\, provides professionals with the knowledge and tools needed to identify and address bias within their practice. \nDesigned for those working in the justice system\, this training explores the science and behaviour behind unconscious bias\, offering evidence-based research on its presence in policing\, probation\, and the wider criminal justice system. Participants will be guided through self-reflection exercises to help identify personal biases\, triggers\, and decision-making patterns that may impact their professional responsibilities. \nThrough interactive discussions and case studies\, the course will explore practical ways to challenge racial disproportionality\, improve the accuracy of risk assessments\, and ensure Presentence Reports (PSRs) are free from bias. Attendees will also gain strategies for fostering fairer and more culturally responsive practices\, ultimately reducing overrepresentation and improving support for young people involved in the justice system. \nBy the end of the training\, participants will have a deeper awareness of unconscious bias\, a clearer understanding of systemic disproportionality\, and the skills to implement bias-reducing strategies in their daily work. \nIdeal for: \n\nPrison and probation staff\nCourt officers and judiciary professionals\nYouth Justice Case Workers and social workers\nPolice officers and law enforcement professionals\nAnyone working directly with Black and global majority young people in the justice system\n\n  \nKey Takeaways: \n\nUnderstanding unconscious bias and how it influences decision-making\nExamining evidence-based research on bias within the criminal justice system\nIdentifying personal biases and recognising their impact on practice\nStrategies for reducing bias in PSRs\, risk assessments\, and sentencing recommendations\nExploring the causes of racial disproportionality and how to address overrepresentation\n\n  \nAdditional Benefits: \n\nDevelop greater self-awareness and mindfulness in working with diverse communities\nGain confidence in having courageous conversations about race and bias\nLearn practical steps to implement bias-free decision-making processes\nAccess expert guidance on best practices for reducing reoffending\n\n  \nThis course is essential for professionals committed to promoting fairness\, accountability\, and equity within the justice system\, ensuring all young people receive fair treatment and appropriate support. \n\n\nAdd to calendar \n \n\nGoogle Calendar\niCalendar\nOutlook 365\nOutlook Live\n\n\n\n\n\n \nTickets\nThe numbers below include tickets for this event already in your cart.
