Child welfare professionals are confronted with racial, cultural, and parenting differences that may challenge their worldview. This webinar focuses on variables that drive racial disparity – and how cultural humility and a strength-based approach are key ingredients to increasing authentic family engagement. Operating through the lens of justice, participants will continue to build skills necessary to nurture partnerships with families and communities.
