The Center of Excellence, in partnership with the Children’s Equity Project, concluded its four part equity series last month with its final webinar, entitled “Culture, Identity, History as Sources of Strength and Resilience for Latino Children and Families”.
The purpose of the Equity in IECMHC Webinar Series is to promote equity through IECMHC by building awareness of the impact of institutional racism and other forms of bias on the experiences of children and families from marginalized communities and identifying policies and strengthening culturally responsive practices that reduce disparities and improve child outcomes. The first webinar, presented in April, explored the historical and societal institution of racism and other forms of bias on the early care and education experiences of children and families from marginalized communities and identified ways to address equity, bias, and disparities through an IECMHC framework.
