 a civil rights or Behavioral Intervention Team (BIT) process\, shaping how
  concerns are received\, evaluated\, and addressed. While practitioners ha
 ve legal and ethical obligations to ensure fairness\, their personal exper
 iences\, assumptions\, and cognitive biases can affect how information is 
 interpreted and decisions are made.</p>\n<p style="text-align: left\;">Thr
 ough discussion and interactive activities\, presenters will explore pract
 ical strategies for recognizing and mitigating bias while strengthening ob
 jective\, consistent decision-making. Attendees will leave with practical 
 tools to support fair\, consistent\, and defensible outcomes.</p>
