Anchored in cultural competency models, The Cultural Engagement Playbook is a transformative program that empowers individuals to define and expand their understanding of themselves and others in meaningful ways. The CEP was developed based on extensive teaching and research at Pitt, supported by an NSF I-Corps grant that helped bring this product into the marketplace.
 

This interactive resource uses exercises inspired by in-person cultural competency practices to prompt trainees to reflect on and engage with their own personal experiences. Through these guided reflections, participants explore the hidden essentials of their lives and how their lived experiences influence their attitudes. They then translate this awareness into greater compassion, stronger engagement, improved empathy, and a deeper commitment to well-being and human connection.
 

The Cultural Engagement Playbook is designed to adapt seamlessly to both in-person and virtual environments, offering flexible and accessible engagement for diverse contexts.
