Kansas City parents, I want to hear from YOU. Has your school released their plan for fall yet? Are you comfortable sending your kid back? Are you still working from home? Do you need child care next year? [email protected] or DM me.

Join fellow parents, educators and child development and trauma experts for an important conversation about how you can talk with young children about racial injustice and violence against Black people. https://t.co/QNl3yPsY6O

If your social media manager seems stressed, it’s because they've been in crisis mode for 3 months.
If they seem tense, it's because they've been reading 100s of angry comments.
