REUNIFICATION RESOURCES
Reconnect Families All Year Long
June is National Reunification Month! This year, consider how investing in culturally appropriate services and supports can help keep families together!
Black and American Indian/Alaska Native children are at greater risk of being removed from their homes than other children. By utilizing a culturally responsive approach and seeking culturally appropriate services for families of diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds, we can address racial disproportionalities and disparities in the child welfare system and increase the likelihood of reunification for these populations.
Find strategies, tips, and tools to better engage children and families in this resource collection on reunifying families, and explore tools on cultural responsiveness to make addressing racial equity a priority in your practice.
