CASCWA 2018 State Conference

This session will focus on the process of White identity formation, frequent barriers to White engagement in racial dialogues, White privilege/opportunity and the ways that mindfulness practices and Epoch's RIR protocol can support White teachers and administrators to recognize their own biases and lean into difficult conversations with students and each other. This session supports the Benchmark Tier of the MTSS approach by providing tools for an exploration of biases and beliefs in order to promote classroom and school environments that are supportive of the socio-emotional and behavioral well-being of all students.
