Resources for educators
Emerging Minds has created a range of resources that explore ways of working with culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) children and families. These resources include podcast episodes, practice papers, a short article on racism and a course about understanding children’s mental health in CALD communities.
While these resources have not been created specifically for educators, they do contain tools and skills that may be useful in education settings.
