Signature Series: Reducing Implicit Bias - W

Implicit bias has become a topic of increasing interest and importance to lawyers and judges. Join us as our speakers address implicit bias from the perspective of the lawyer, including its causes, effects, and management.  Themes discussed in the recently published book, Enhancing Justice: Reducing Bias, published by the American Bar Association and edited by Professor Sara Redfield will be highlighted. While the book’s audience is the judiciary, its content can be applied with equal usefulness to lawyers.
