Creating Anti-Racist & Liberated Early Learning Environments

Mar 5, 2024

1:30pm – 3:00pm CT

Early learning environments are one of the most important spaces for children to develop the foundation needed for lifelong positive outcomes. Unfortunately, not all children receive the early education they deserve due to anti-Blackness and systemic racism. During this interactive conversation, RISE will introduce our Anti-racist and Liberated Early Childhood Education model that disrupts these trends and provide participants with the space to ask questions and to share their experiences. Together, we will co-create an improved model, driving positive change for our children's futures.
