Words Matter – Adverse Childhood Experiences

CIPHER created the Words Matter campaign to share and promote a collective understanding of many well-known and used mental health terms that describe various occupationally related challenges many public safety personnel (PSP), healthcare workers (HCWs), veterans, and their families face every day.

Words Matter – Intersectionality

Intersectionality examines how various aspects of our identities, such as race, gender, and background, influence the way we are treated, revealing that certain factors can affect privilege or disadvantage. Understanding intersectionality sheds light on the dynamics of inequality. Ideally, this fosters a world that will increase efforts to improve fairness, value every voice, and promote universal respect. It’s crucial to recognize that advantages vary widely among individuals and groups, shaped by societal perceptions that can impact entire communities.

Words Matter – Cultural Competency

By fostering an understanding of diverse backgrounds, we empower professionals to navigate nuanced situations with sensitivity and respect.
