Story Starters Story Starters equips families with strategies to raise children who have anti-racist values.

Story Starters uses children’s literature to support families in being color brave. We give families of all races age-appropriate tools and skills to preempt racial bias and build community change. Story Starters at-home curriculum supports 3-8 year olds and their families build empathy, support connection, and get into the habit of talking about race.
