Intersectionality in our Homes and Creating an Inclusive Space for Queer and Neurodivergent Children and Youth
Mar 08th 9:00 am - 4:00 pm
In this full-day workshop, we will explore a bit more about the neurodivergent and queer communities. We will look at current understandings of what it means to be part of these communities, and how folks can better support and include our youth as both allies and foster parents.
The day includes group work, first person accounts,
and tangible things that we can do as foster parents to create a feeling
of safety and community in our homes. We will focus on listening to the
teachings of self-advocates, particularly our youth and young adults, and
attempt to engage in a world that we might not know a lot about.
