One hope that I have when I think about working with children and families who come from diverse backgrounds is that I will be able to teach them that we all have value and our diversity should be appreciated, celebrated and that we all have wonderful things to contribute. One goal I would like to set for the early childhood field in regards to diversity and social justice is that it will be a topic and continued conversation that will encourage all educators to evolve their programs to meet the needs of every student to the best of their ability. I would like to thank my colleagues for the kind words about my dialogues, encouragement and sharing your personal experiences on these topics.
