All Stamford providers working with young people, are welcome to attend our quarterly meeting
Classism
The construct of social class has a big impact on people’s overall development as it relates to a person’s access to wealth, privilege and status. Because classism has an adverse impact on people’s overall functioning, we must understand it and know how to limit its impact on a young person, especially since we work in a region where young people are faced daily with the external trappings of excessive wealth and how our society perceives white collar high earners.

- Inclusive language
- Skill building to help us address the negative impacts of classism
