SUMMARY:ALLIANCE - Relative/Kinship Caregiving:  Supporting the Children in Your Care
DESCRIPTION:You made the choice to step in and provide care for a child when they needed it. This choice changed the day-to-day rhythms of your life\, and the life of the child or children you are caring for. The changes that come with assuming full time care of a child bring with them a host of feelings and often added stressors. In this course\, we will explore how this experience is impacting you and how to cope and care for yourself through the inevitable ups and downs. Then\, we will shift our focus to understanding the feelings and behaviors the children are experiencing. It is common for them to have conflicting feelings about their parents\, the situation and even you. We will consider how to accept their feelings\, respond to their statements and questions\, and support them as they navigate this. Lastly\, we will review resources and sources of support\, particularly support for children of all ages who are challenged by this transition and need support to not just survive but to thrive. \nCaregivers Register Here

SUMMARY:ALLIANCE - Talking With Children About Race
DESCRIPTION:2nd of 2 Sessions \nRecent research has shown that children have very complex understandings of differences and how they make meaning of stereotypes. Far from being color-blind\, most children are aware of how their own skin color is an advantage or disadvantage.  They also judge their peers based on these differences — even though many adults believe young children in today’s generation don’t stereotype. Because of this\, it is important to give children anti-bias messages\, through actions and words that actively counter what they are internalizing and witnessing in the world. \nIn this workshop we will explore how children and youth learn and practice racism and privilege. Participants will learn strategies to for acting on teachable moments and ways to create counter narratives. \nThis training is presented by Dr. Caprice Hollins and/or Ilsa Govan\, M.A.\, co-founders of Cultures Connecting\, LLC.  \nDr. Hollins received her doctorate in clinical psychology with an emphasis in multicultural and community psychology in 1998. She has over 14 years of experience teaching graduate courses\, working with historically marginalized populations\, researching\, studying\, and facilitating race related conversations.
