Race Equity Resource Hub

This hub includes resources that support race equity, one of NACC’s core values.

The child welfare system often perpetuates racism, bias, poverty, and the trauma of family separation against children and families of color. NACC encourages advocates and practitioners to resist these injustices by demonstrating cultural humility, pursuing antiracist practices, confronting personal privilege and bias, utilizing a race equity lens when making decisions, and promoting diversity and inclusion.
