The Hierarchy of Racial and Cultural Needs of Transracial Adoptees and Fosterees: A Two-Part Webinar Series (Part 1)

Join Dr. Chaitra Wirta-Leiker (psychologist, transracial adoptee of color, and transracially adoptive parent) as she guides participants through the nuanced aspects of raising a child of color in a multiracial family. Using her proprietary adapted model of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, she will provide insight into your child's physiological, safety, interpersonal, emotional, and achievement-based needs in relation to their racial and cultural identity. Dr. Wirta-Leiker will also offer practical tools for building environments and relationships that facilitate racial and cultural identity development in a healthy, effective, and supportive manner.
