DIVERSIFYING THE WORKFORCE "Given that psychological safety is so fundamental to well-being, we have to ask if it is possible to truly promote well-being in the absence of a more diverse health and well-being workforce." - Sara Johnson, Equity, Justice, and the Role of the Health Promotion Profession in Dismantling Systemic Racism ​ We must recognize the lack of diversity, and the lack of access to resources, in our own industries.

With guest experts including clergy, practicing front line physicians, faculty from University of Maryland, Johns Hopkins University and others, students will be trained in how to assess treatment options, risks and benefits before consenting to a procedure. They learn how to use the latest personal medical technology to their advantage and how to optimize and ‘decode’ a doctor visit. Students discover how to identify, de-stigmatize, and access treatment when needed for spiritual, emotional, and mental health. After completion of the training, and learning peer coaching skills, participants will be registered with Kindred Coaches™ to actively work voluntarily with communities within the diocese. ​ Thank you to Carol Scott, Karen Mercer, Shannon McCullough, Sheryl Ricard and Charles Inniss for your vision for this project! Baltimore Sun feature Washington Post feature Kindred Coaches UPLIFTING THE UNDERSERVED In partnership with Mecklenburg County Detention Center in North Carolina, we are supporting 30 residents to improve their communication skills so they may provide peer support to others within the Detention Center.

See Module 1 schedule to get started! Register for Module 4 Testimonials I wanted to provide you with some feedback on my own personal experience and journey thus far with Wellcoaches training. We are just starting week #5…I can’t believe it – it seems like time is just flying by. I’m enjoying this class so much. The instructors are a class act, and I am learning a lot about myself and how I can better serve others through health coaching. Let me say…this training is saving my life. Quite literally. The Wellcoaches training is teaching me the skills I need to cope with my wife’s diagnosis, and I’m able to apply these skills (listening, empathy, reflecting, etc.), to how I interact with my wife (and others) during this difficult time. SO, THANK YOU to Wellcoaches, to the amazing trainers, and my learning partners for giving me the help and support I need. AND, I’m learning such valuable life skills…It is just an AMAZING experience so far. Stacy Clark
