SUMMARY:Online |Knowledge Exchange- Training & Support: Teaching Children t
 o Appreciate Diversity
DESCRIPTION:Meets every 3rd Tuesday of each month\n**No meeting July**\n&nb
 sp\;\n\nKnowledge Exchange-  a friendly\, feel-good space where foster\, 
 kinship\, and adoptive caregivers can gather\, learn\, laugh a little\, an
 d leave with tools they can actually use. This group is a chance to swap s
 tories\, ask questions\, share “what works\,” and pick up practical st
 rategies for supporting children who have experienced trauma\, loss\, or b
 ig life changes. Come join us\, bring your questions\, and enjoy a communi
 ty that understands the journey and is here to cheer you on along the way.
 \n\nTopic: Children notice differences every day\, and the way caregivers
  respond can shape how they understand themselves\, others\, and the world
  around them. This class helps caregivers create welcoming\, respectful en
 vironments where children learn that every person is unique and worthy of 
 dignity. Together\, we will explore how to talk with children about race\,
  ethnicity\, culture\, ability\, beliefs\, identity\, family background\, 
 and other differences in ways that encourage curiosity\, kindness\, and co
 nfidence. Whether you are supporting a child at home\, in care\, or in the
  community\, this class will give you tools to nurture empathy\, belonging
 \, and appreciation for the many cultures and experiences that make each p
 erson’s story meaningful.\n\nFor our training &amp\; support meetings\,
