When the Work Hurts: Exploring Moral Injury in Mission-Centered Careers with Johnanna Ganz, Ph.D.Intended for staff, board members, volunteers of mission driven organizations and governmental organizations.
Nonprofit leaders are invited to attend the all-day session.
Are you and your coworkers exhausted, overwhelmed, feeling like you have lost the guiding force of your values when it comes to serving the community? If so, you are not alone! Human service organizations are facing increased pressures to make impossible choices, are unable to serve the most vulnerable in our community due to imposed policies and funding, or “playing nice” with systems that are harming the communities you serve. Many describe the impacts they are experiencing as burnout when in reality the underlying cause may actually be Moral Injury.
“Moral injury is the damage done to one’s conscience or moral compass when that person perpetrates, witnesses, or fails to prevent acts that transgress one’s own moral beliefs, values, or ethical codes of conduct.” (The Moral Injury Project)
Join us for a condensed 1-session overview of the topic of moral injury for people in human-services and mission-centered work. This session features presentation, discussion, and activities for participants. People will walk away with clear definitions of moral injury, its impacts, and be equipped to use the Risk and Action Planner tool to support their career sustainability and mitigate harm.
