Privilege in Practice: Influences on Decision-Making in Family Law

April Harris-Britt, PhD

Explore how privilege operates within family law systems and professional decision-making. Framed with compassion and humility, privilege is discussed not with blame or accusation, but as a systemic reality that influences outcomes for families. Particular attention is given to white privilege, alongside intersections of socioeconomic status, gender, immigration status, disability, and professional power. Through brief case examples and guided reflection, participants will examine how broader societal narratives may unconsciously shape perceptions of parents, children, and families.
