Foster Care Training

Sponsored by Lincoln

This training in partnership with Lincoln Families defines foundational terms related to whiteness, white supremacy, and racism, & prompts participants to consider how their white identities affect how they embody their professional role(s). Through self-reflection, discussion, and interactive activities, participants will recognize and challenge areas of discomfort and fragility based on internalized ideas about whiteness as “normal” or “superior.” Participants will explore the Cycle of Oppression as one model that describes how individual acts of bias become systemic discrimination and oppression. We will define the term microaggression, explore common racial microaggressions, and explore four possible responses to racist microaggressions. Finally, we will define the term anti-racism and brainstorm anti-racist practices to integrate into each person’s professional context. Please register at:
