AMARA Community Workshop
Description
Angela Tucker, trans-racial adoptee and Amara’s Director of Post-Adoption Services, expands on Amara’s Partnering for Permanency class with this interactive and informational workshop.
The workshop includes facilitated discussions with parents and caregivers about privilege, implicit bias, micro-aggression and an adult adoptee panel. Teaching modalities will include a mix of lecture, video, open dialogue and structured activities. Participants will engage in activities designed to assist in becoming more comfortable talking to others about race and culture, particularly within the framework of trans-racial adoption.
