Building Healthy Identities

Building Healthy Identities is a revised version of Module 2 in the Foster Parent Foundations Training and intended as an ongoing training for parents that completed module 2 prior to July 2022.

This 1-hour module was designed to support you and the children you are caring for in developing healthy identities. This module highlights strategies for doing this work and builds understanding of the experience and effects of race‐based discrimination as well as discrimination against LGBTQ+ youth. You will thoroughly explore ways to help children establish and maintain healthy identities through the topics of marginalization, discrimination, racism, sexual orientation, and gender identity.
