Description: Join presenter Jimmie Heags, Jr., MA, LSC, LPCC, LADC, ACS, for this session that explores how cultural identities and experiences impact student-instructor interactions and shape the way we make meaning of the world.

Learning will be acquired through the explanation of concepts, anecdotes and stories, videos and participant reflection.
