Together, we stand for equality and justice.
Our nation is engaging in an urgent and much-needed conversation about racial injustice in this country.
At Walden, we recognize the importance of the current moment and want to assist our families and, particularly, our students, as they process and take part in this national dialogue. Please find below resources that can help you navigate discussions with your child(ren) regarding questions or concerns they may have as well as constructive ways to inspire change.*
*Please note that this initial list contains a small sampling of resources available for families. Through time, we anticipate this page to further develop through the expressed feedback and interests of our community.
