Knowing Who You Are Workshops Offered Around the State

Sunday, October 23, 2011 - www.alaskacasa.org


Knowing Who You Are (KWYA) is a three-part curriculum developed by Casey Family Programs for social workers and other adults and professionals in the child welfare system. Created with the direct collaboration of alumni of foster care, youth still in care, birth parents, and resource families, the curriculum helps child welfare professionals explore race and ethnicity, preparing them to support the healthy development of their constituent’s racial and ethnic identity. Learn more about KWYA.

The KWYA process includes watching a video (about 20 minutes long), completing an e-learning tutorial on-line (approximately 6 hours long), and then participating in the 2-day in-person workshop.
