Free Training: Social Justice Curriculum for Secondary Educators

Teachers today want to address social justice issues like racism, sexism, homophobia, and other harmful forms of discrimination with their students, but they may not be sure where to start. TeachKind’s free social justice curriculum, Challenging Assumptions, is the answer. TeachKind and the United Federation of Teachers’ Humane Education Committee teamed up to provide a live virtual training session. Watch the recorded version here. Use this exciting resource to educate and empower students in grades 6 to 12 to challenge societal norms and inspire compassion and empathy for others, regardless of species, race, gender, sexual identity, age, or ability.
