A Place of Healing: A History of Wentworth-Douglass Hospital
with Noreen Biehl

How do I help my child learn about race as a parent, educator, and caregiver? What are the roles I can play, what should I do, and what do I need to say? 

Introducing EmbraceRace's course -- The Color-Brave Caregiver, a blueprint for raising children who are thoughtful, informed, and brave about race. Participants will deepen their understanding of color-blindness in U.S. society and learn about EmbraceRace’s counter-posture of color-braveness, self-assess caregiving roles and environment setting, and practice skills through workshops and scenario play.

The Library will close early on 12/31 @ 5pm and will be closed on 1/1/2026.
