Our youth are living through a critical and pivotal watershed moment in global history.

As if adolescence and identity formation weren’t hard enough, the global pandemic and racial unrest have introduced another layer of stress and trauma in developing youth across multicultural and ethnic experiences. 

If you’re not sure how to support these young people, you’re not alone!

  • How racial trauma impacts adolescent development
