This enduring material provides continuing education to physicians, nurses, and allied health professionals on the historical context of the District of Columbia and the current health status of the District of Columbia, highlighting disparities and challenges.

This enduring material includes 1.00 CE credits for DC Health Priority Topic: Healthcare Professional Retention and Capacity Building - Implicit bias, cultural humility, and Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services (CLAS) in health and healthcare.

This course is presented as part of the 2025 Center for Health Equity Teaching for Inclusion and Equity Certificate Program: Equity Forward Faculty Workshops. This series contains fundamental principles workshops to educate faculty, fellows, residents, and staff on the theme of “Building Foundational Knowledge in Health Equity and Cultivating Inclusive Learning.” Because our faculty/learners are all in different places in their equity journey, this course offers opportunities to learn foundational health equity topics as well as ways to create more inclusive learning environments. Therefore, each workshop will cover topics in one of these two tracks (1) Foundational Knowledge in Health Equity track or (2) Teaching & Learning Environment track and a few workshops will cover topics in both tracks. These stand-alone workshops can be joined at any time.

Participants who attend and complete any 6 or more workshops of the series by September 30, 2025, will receive a Certificate of Completion on Teaching for Inclusion and Equity. Qualifying participants will be contacted in October 2025 with a copy of the certificate. Additional materials from workshops will be shared on the Equity Forward Faculty website: https://centerforhealthequity.georgetown.edu/equity-forward-faculty-campaign
