SUMMARY:Bringing Race Into the Room: Supporting Racial Attachment Needs with Transracially Adoptive Students and Families
DESCRIPTION:Virtual training event for Sonia Shankman Orthogenic School staff members. Join Dr. Chaitra Wirta-Leiker for an enlightening discussion addressing the complex dynamics of transracial adoption. Through the lens of the seven core issues in adoption combined with her groundbreaking model of the racial and cultural identity needs of transracial adoptees\, she will provide compassionate and comprehensive support to professionals who work with transracially adoptive families. Grow your awareness of the internal and external experiences of adoptees of color as they strive to build a positive racial and cultural identity\, enhance your understanding of the role race plays in parent-child attachment patterns\, learn to discuss race and racism using developmentally appropriate language\, identify strategies to guide adoptive caregivers’ understanding of their own racial biases\, and build the confidence to bring race into the room in a manner that promotes safety\, empowerment\, and connection.
