Early Childhood Virtual Summit 2022

Name: Minds On Design Lab Inc.
Price range: $

On December 3, 2022, EmbraceRace joined with Race Forward's H.E.A.L Together and other partner organizations to put on our first EmbraceRace Early Childhood Summit. We featured four "tiny talks," a panel and breakout sessions all unified by this theme: Defending and Celebrating Racial Learning in Early Childhood.

Thanks to our partners, participants, and speakers for making our first Early Childhood Summit a success! Happily, you can watch or read the presentations in English here. We will add the videos in transcripts in Spanish soon. Thank you for your patience!
