BSK: Centering Black Excellence Symposium
December 9 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm
The Best Starts for Kids Workforce Development Strategy, in collaboration with WestEd, invites you to attend the Centering Black Excellence Symposium happening Tuesday, December 9th from 9 AM – 4 PM at Highline College!
This in-person symposium where we will center the professional and lived experiences of accomplished Black Women who will share with us their stories and insights about working in the field of early childhood.
This symposium will host a panel with Adana Protonentis, Dr. Cynthia Davis-Vanloo, Dr. Debra Sullivan, Dr. Sabine Thomas, Shayla Collins, moderated by Ashley Ewings and Breea Wainright.
Through discussion, open dialogue, and collective exploration, we hope to both celebrate progress made and confront the inequalities that persist so that all children, particularly those from marginalized communities, can thrive in the world they truly deserve.
