Stigma

This week's episode is about stigma and how media and adults label athletes too quickly and the challenges young people have to overcome 'mistakes.' Chris and Anthony also discuss how implicit bias plays a part in stigma and if coaches and mentors could take the time to understand their athletes as humans first, young people might actually perform better. Learn how the healing-centered sports approach can make sport a vehicle for systemic change. Contact the Center for Healing and Justice through Sport. Want to chat directly with our hosts?
