At Silver Lining Mentoring, one of our values is cultural responsiveness. We are committed to listening and responding to all voices to promote respect, compassion, and social change. As part of our ongoing commitment to moving along the path of cultural responsiveness, the Silver Lining Mentoring Board of Directors participated in a cultural responsiveness training in July.
The training was led by Yolanda Coentro, President and CEO at the Institute for Nonprofit Management and Leadership. The training included a discussion of the systemic context behind racial disproportionality in the foster care system and opportunities to build inclusion.
Thank you to the law firm Brown Rudnick for generously hosting the training!
Thank you so much for addressing this important issue.
