National Multicultural Conference and Summit
http://www.multiculturalsummit.org
The mission of the National Multicultural Conference and Summit (NMCS) is to convene
students, practitioners, and scholars in psychology and related fields to inform
and inspire multicultural research and practice. We envision multiculturalism as
inclusive of experiences related to ethnicity/race, sexual orientation, gender,
physical ability, social class, age, and other social identities. The objective
of the 2009 NMCS is to promote social justice and psychological wellbeing for historically
marginalized communities, as well as to explore links and tensions between social
justice and multicultural psychology. To this end, participants will exchange knowledge,
engage in dialogue, develop skills, and honor the wisdom within our fields and cultures.
