As we stay inside and practice responsible social distancing, it’s more important than ever that we’re connecting and supporting one another.

That’s why the Women's March is hosting a series of webinars this week to discuss the issues we know are impacting you already. Yesterday we heard from frontline responders including teachers and nurses, and today we’re gathering online to share ways to talk with kids about coronavirus.

UPDATE: You can watch the webinar right here:

RSVP now to join our live conversation today at 2:30pm ET co-hosted with MomsRising to ask your questions and hear from other parents and guardians about ways to talk with kids about COVID-19.

Featured Panelists:

  • Caitlin Breedlove, Women’s March, Moderator
  • Monifa Bandele, Senior Vice President, Healthy Kids & Maternal Justice Programs, MomsRising Together & MomsRising Education Fund
  • Lina Acosta Sandaal, MA, LMFT, Owner/Founder of Stop Parenting Alone

Keeping our kids informed and safe is paramount – and it’s also important to keep their fears and anxiety at bay. We know that women are most often the primary caregivers at home, which means many of us are having difficult conversations with our kids.

We hope you’ll join us for this conversation and we look forward to hearing your thoughts.

We’re in this together.
