All adults and children have and experience emotions. Emotions are universal. Even though we think differently, act differently, look differently, and have different life experiences, we all have the common language of our emotions."
~Dr. Donna Housman
Recently Dr. Housman joined our friends at himama for an engaging and important webinar "How to Teach Children to Embrace Differences"
Come read Dr. Housman's blog post for himama as she discusses how the common thread of emotions unites us all and builds a foundation of empathy and understanding.

At Housman Institute, we believe our role is to nurture the social, emotional, and cognitive well-being of all students and educators without bias. It is critical that every child feel recognized and validated from their earliest days—to understand that their voice matters, regardless of background or experience and is being heard. We listen to, respect and support the needs of our educators as we recognize their critical role in a child's emotional growth and development. Together we need to begin the important work to help all our children and educators, as we move toward a more equitable environment for early learning, setting the stage for the building blocks of empathy and conflict resolution, and a more equitable future for us all.
