Our fellowship recognizes the importance of cultural and individual differences and diversity in the training of psychologists. Additionally, we are committed to providing accessible, inclusive care to our patients and their families through a lens of cultural humility. We have a variety of training opportunities and resources available to our trainees at the departmental and institutional (Kennedy Krieger and The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine) level to help support this mission.
