SUMMARY:The Ethical Responsibility of Social Justice in Families
DESCRIPTION:The Ethical Responsibility of Social Justice in Families \nWhen: Thursday\, Sep 25th 2025\n10:00 AM – 11:30 AM (Central Time) \nCost: Free \n\n\n\n\n\nRecording Notes: This webinar will be not recorded. \n\nAudience: Parents& Professionals\nLevel: Intermediate\nAges addressed: 0-18 \nPLEASE NOTE: To receive a certificate of attendance for the live webinar\, attendees must register individually\, attend the entire training\, and watch from their own device to ensure proper tracking \nIn today’s world\, the call for social justice extends beyond public spaces and into our homes\, where the\nfoundational dynamics of equity are shaped. Adoption is a deeply complex process\, influenced by social\,\ncultural\, and ethical considerations. In this engaging seminar\, we’ll explore the intersection of social\njustice and adoption\, focusing on how these dynamics impact families and adoption practices. \nThis training will examine the ethical responsibilities families face when integrating social justice into\ntheir daily lives. Participants will gain insight into how race\, culture\, and systemic inequalities shape\nfamily systems and influence both children and adults. We’ll discuss how principles like equity\, inclusion\,\nand anti-racism should guide ethical decision-making in adoption\, and how these values can create\nsupportive\, understanding\, and fair environments for all children. \nSocial justice is not just a buzzword—it’s an ongoing framework that helps dismantle entrenched biases\,\nharmful narratives\, and inequities within adoption agencies\, legal systems\, and family structures.\nThrough expert insights\, real-world examples\, and actionable strategies\, this session will equip parents\,\ncaregivers\, and families with the tools they need to foster more just and inclusive family environments. \nWhether you are navigating the adoption process\, seeking to create a more inclusive home\, or working\nas a professional in the field\, this webinar will provide the resources you need to embed social justice\nprinciples into family systems and everyday practices.
