DEI Parent Guidebooks - How to Talk to Kids About Poverty and Homelessness

The purpose of this guidebook (and all of our guidebooks) is to enrich your child's education with DEI morals (empathy, kindness, and respect for EVERYONE). Specifically here, and using our typically succinct writing style, our goal is to help you guide your child toward kindness and respect for poor people.

You'll find step-by-step instructions for:

- Subtly learning your child's true opinion of poverty
- Explaining the basics about poverty
- Discussing poverty stereotypes
- Responding to common questions from kids about poverty and homelessness

- Cultivating a home environment that fosters empathy for poor people.

Please note: Instead of general advice like 'be a good role model' or 'talk about feelings,' our guidebooks provide specific age-appropriate examples and instructions for integrating diversity and inclusion values into daily life at home.
