Raising Change Agents

Tools and strategies for busy parents seeking to instil social justice values in their children

Raising Change Agents gives parents the tools they need to weave social justice actions into their daily routines, raise socially conscious kids, and address their own triggers and trauma. It helps them become more than performative, take a proactive approach, and teach their kids and themselves to live in alignment with their values, even when overwhelmed with the demands of work and home life. The author’s proven framework focuses on breaking the abstract concepts of social justice actions into bite-sized actions that parents can implement throughout the day, whether during mealtime, bath time, play, or school drop-off.

The book explores how to:

• Raise children to be social change agents by first becoming one.
• Practice social justice in daily parenting while promoting a child’s development at the same time; each social justice action in this book is linked to developmental psychology.
• Take concrete actions to support doing the “heart work” of liberation together for the long haul, because liberation starts at home.

Raising Change Agents is an essential read for busy parents who believe in social justice initiatives and want to instil these values in their children but don’t yet have the tools and strategies to do so. It is also invaluable for practitioners, therapists, educators, and other professionals who work with children.
