EmbraceRace's Early Childhood Community
The EmbraceRace Early Childhood Community is made up of online communities of learning and practice (COLPs) where parents, caregivers and educators to young children (0-8 years) learn from and with each other to create spaces that nourish children who fully embrace their own - and each others’ - humanity. Supporting adults to raise all children to embrace their own and each others' humanity is part of the larger work of EmbraceRace.
Parents, caregivers and educators to young children (0-8 years)
How to join
New COLPs start several times a year and meet for 5 one-hour sessions that are held every other week. These are not sit and get training sessions but rather a chance to explore ideas, share experiences, and learn from and with others in the group.
If you are a guardian, parent, teacher or other caregiver raising and mentoring one or more children ages 0 to 8, consider joining and building this learning community with us!
