Transracial Adoption Education Workshop
May 18 @ 9:30 am – 12:00 pm
*Secure your spot today!
As the parent of a transracial adoptee, you have to be ready and willing to address the elephant in the room. How do you talk to your child about their skin color and the racism they may face some day? How do you answer problematic questions from someone at the store?
By gaining confidence and comfort in talking about race and transracial adoption, you can better advocate for your child and model appropriate responses for when they’re old enough to speak for themselves.
In this workshop, we will practice having tough conversations about race and raising a transracial adoptee. We will identify and learn how to respond to instances of interpersonal or structural racism with the people in your community.
We expect spots to go quickly. RSVP today to secure your seat in class!
