Increasing BIPOC in the field of Psychology
Dr. Madore and the NEAT Lab cultivate a culture which honors diversity, equity, and inclusion. We believe that it is necessary to institute a multifaceted approach in order to mitigate the impact of systemic racism and discrimination in the field. As individuals, it is our duty to use our privilege to affect change. This can occur in many forms. Some examples include:
-
Mentorship and sponsorship of BIPOC individuals
-
Providing social and financial support to BIPOC individuals
-
Joining local, regional, and national organizations and speaking up when you witness injustices
​
Another way to institute change is through servant leadership. Dr. Madore serves her community through the various volunteer service positions she participates in. Below is a list of organizations in which she has held, or currently holds, leadership positions in.
