New Jersey Adoption Resource Clearing House

To tap into the full potential of adopted and fostered children of color, educators must not only confront their racial biases, they must become adoption-literate and trauma-informed. Academic ability and learning differences are often misinterpreted by both parents and educators. This conversation will include the voices of the foremost experts on the experience of being adopted: adoptees of color, ages 10 to 17, speaking about their experiences to give us a deeper understanding of how schools work and how schools understand/misunderstand our children. A specific focus will be on how schools can be pushed to best serve all children and particularly adopted children of color. Target audience: Teachers, school administrators, parents.
