Child Welfare is Not Exempt from Structural Racism and Implicit Bias

"Continuing to address racial disparity and the subsequent disproportionality in the child welfare system is necessary, because it exists... We must do all that we can to create a fair system, and that includes using an intersectional lens when examining outcomes across sub-populations. It does not mean avoiding a topic that creates discomfort. Perhaps when people commit to increasing critical consciousness, face personal discomfort and support anti-racist legislation and strategies, then real change can begin to permeate the child welfare system." - Jessica Pryce, The Imprint
