Pitc Webinar Series Part 1 : Resisting the Margins

The California Department of Social Services, Child Care and Development Division (CDSS-CCDD), in partnership with WestEd’s Program for Infant/Toddler Care (PITC), hosted a webinar series that focuses on updates from the book, Infant/Toddler Caregiving: A Guide to Social-Emotional Growth and Socialization, now in its third edition.

The series highlighted the significant work of infant/toddler care providers and teachers in developing relationships with individual children and their families, an important first step in supporting the children’s social-emotional growth and socialization.

The first in a two-part series, this archived webinar focuses on self-knowledge and meaningful partnerships with families and introduces one of the new chapters from the Infant/Toddler Caregiving book, “Resisting the Margins: Advancing an Imperative to Attend to Race and Culture and the Social-Emotional Growth and Learning of Infants and Toddlers.” Our guest presenter, Eva Marie Shivers, considered poverty and racism, and how these impact the well-being of children, families, and early-childhood educators.

Webinar Moderator: Elizabeth Crocker
Presenter: Eva Marie Shivers
