Talking About Racism in Child and Family Advocacy
In a truly just society, no child lives, learns, or plays in environments that expose them repeatedly to things we know are harmful. Our commitment to children therefore involves a commitment to ending racism and its harmful effects, so that all children, regardless of race or ethnicity, have a full and just opportunity to reach their full potential.
This research helps us to pinpoint and predict the specific challenges we may face when leading public conversations about racism and its effects on child wellbeing.
