Weight Stigma: A Deeper Dive and Strategies for Reduction Workshop
Thursday, October 20, 2022 (6:00 PM - 7:30 PM) (CDT)
Description
Join us for the virtual Diversity, Equity, and Belonging (DEB) workshop, a follow up to the March workshop on weight bias and discrimination. The last workshop, Transforming the Talk Behind Body Bias, discussed weight bias and how it impacts our health and relationships with others.
Dr. Himmelstein will help YWA members better understand weight stigma and provide participants with the tools and resources to take action to address weight stigma in their daily lives. This workshop is part of the Crucial Conversation series with YWA. All are welcome to join and you do not need to have participated in the previous workshop.
About our Presenter: Dr. Himmelstein is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychological Studies at Kent State University. Her research focuses on understanding how biopsychosocial mechanisms influence health and disease processes as a function of weight stigma and masculinity.
