Taken from the December webinar on ministry with transracially adopted youth in UU congregations, the PowerPoint presentation with additional resource links and audio file of the discussion are now available for download on the Resources for Youth of Color page at www.uua.org. Thanks to all who participated, we had a great discussion! If you weren't able to make it to the December webinar, download these materials on your own schedule! The webinar covered identity formation, discussing issues of race, common assumptions, relationship building, parental engagement and suggestions for religious professionals. Additional resources, also available in the presentation, included the following:
  1. Intro to Ethnic Identity for Youth of Color
  2. Intro to White Identity for Youth
