Discussing Issues of Race with Young Children

This Community Conversation is part of NASW-NJ's Race, Responsibility, and Reconciliation Series.

Young children are frequently more aware of current events and information appearing in the news and social media than parents realize. It's important to have discussions about race with your children to help them make sense of the often scary and confusing information they may be absorbing from their surroundings. It's also a crucial step in raising a generation of young people who understand the complexities of racial relations in our country and who have the ability to continue the work of dismantling racist systems of power.

Please join La'Tesha Sampson, LCSW and NASW-NJ's Executive Director, Jennifer Thompson, MSW for a conversation about how to discuss the issue of race and the recent race-related protests with young children.
