Caregivers Corner: 

Rebekah Gienapp is hosting a FREE online workshop to help guide parents and caregivers in having conversations about race with children. UUFH has not attended and therefore has not vetted the workshop, but you are invited to attend and let us know what you think. 

About Rebekah’s Workshop and Link to Sign-up for Thursday, September 21: https://www.rebekahgienapp.com/assume/ 

learn the 9 most common mindset mistakes I see adults (parents, grandparents/caregivers, teachers, church and community workers) make when it comes to talking race with kids. 

discover more helpful assumptions to embrace so that your antiracist efforts make a real impact with the children in your life.

 get a behind-the-scenes look at the Nurturing Antiracist White Kids course, including how it can give you the framework and skills you need as a caregiver or educator.
