Session: 'Supporting Our Children in Understanding Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging'

"Conversations about diversity, inclusion and belonging will look different for each family. While there is no one-size-fits-all approach, we want to encourage families to engage in these conversations early on.
This workshop will explore parent and caregiver concerns, fears, perception or biases, age appropriate conversations, racial socialization, challenges of biracial children, and strategies for moving forward."
"Research shows that queer and trans* students face disproportionate levels of risk for mental illness and mental health struggles, which often greatly impacts their academic performance, school participation, self-worth, and general wellbeing. In this presentation, we will discuss the lived experiences of 2SLGBTQIA+ students, and explore how to equip queer and gender diverse youth to be prepared to navigate discrimination and marginalization. Finally, we’ll outline steps for caregivers to serve as advocates and allies for their students, within the school system and beyond."
Session: 'Understanding and Exploring Restorative Practices for Families and Caregivers'
“St. Leonard’s Community Services School Based Programs (Restorative Approaches and Peer Power) are rooted in a strong restorative justice based communication skills foundation. Working from prevention to intervention, these programs provide students with the opportunity to build positive peer relationships and expand their communication and conflict resolution skills that assist them in supportive processes to address conflict and repair harm. Referred by school administrators, the engaging Restorative Approaches team facilitators offer various restorative interventions that assist students in addressing conflicts and bullying with their peers, while also providing support and training workshops for teachers, school staff & parents, to help build the capacity of Restorative Practices in school communities.”
