Foundations of Color-Brave Caregiving
July 2023 Training: Racial Learning and Unlearning

This is the second offering in EmbraceRace's "Foundations of Color-Brave Caregiving" program, a training series for caregivers of young children (0-8) who are at the beginning of their racial learning journeys or who would like to fill in gaps in their foundational knowledge.

This 4-week training during July 2023 will center on the topic "Racial Learning and Unlearning: Growing our Understanding of Race & Racism in the U.S." Together, we will explore the basic history of race and racism in the United States; what racism today looks like, from implicit bias to systemic racism; our own positions in a racialized society; and what all of this means for how we raise our children to think about race and racism. Pre-work materials and reflection questions will be provided.

The series consists of one 90-min group meeting each week for 4 weeks. As part of registration, you will be asked to indicate which group you would like to join. Please pay careful attention to the group options below to determine which group is right for you. We welcome caregivers who fill parent/family or educator roles.
