“Is That Your Mom?”: Supporting Multiracial Kids

In this interactive workshop, we will explore how children develop multiracial identity and how adults can support all children's healthy racial identity development. Participants will practice researched-based strategies to limit the effect of society's distorted racial messages. Through self-reflection, large- and small-group activities, participants will develop their own capacity to support multiracial children and families and they will leave with resources to continue learning more.
