Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) Happenings
Our Mission
Our mission is to maintain cultural humility, stay involved, remain dedicated to advanced learning opportunities with regard to cultural awareness, and work collaboratively with our community and the diverse group of professionals who serve our community.
What we are doing:
- Dr. Gallimore has worked closely with Family Court Judges and Conciliation Services in Maricopa County to get a court-approved plan for pro bono services to be offered to indigent families.
- Families with lower income and fewer resources often go underserved and with needs not being met.
- Dr. Gallimore works closely with the community to encourage providers to give back by offering pro bono or sliding scale fee evaluations, parenting time, and therapy to these families, often of ethnic minority status.
- Dr. Gallimore is also involved with creating pathways for free educational webinars and in-person trainings in the community to support the community providers through education and support for those who serve our families directly.
- Trainings will cover a variety of topics on diversity, best practices in family court matters, the basics of evaluations and therapy in family court matters, and much more.
- We hope that by providing more education and training opportunities to the community we can diversify the professionals who serve our families and individuals.
- Dr. Gallimore also provides free 1-hour consultation to professionals in the community needing consultation on family court matters due to lack of forensic training or other issues that limit their understanding or skill set to assist their clients.
How you can help:
- If you are interested in giving back by offering pro bono or sliding scale fee services to indigent families, please contact Dr. Gallimore's office to be added to her referral database.
- You can also contact Dr. Gallimore's office if you are forensically trained and interested in offering free consultation to other professionals in the community.
- If you'd like an opportunity to present at one of the free webinar or in-person trainings, reach out to Dr. Gallimore's office, and she will contact you when this series is ready to begin in 2024.
