About
He was a father, a grandfather, and a son.
The killing of George Floyd displays for all the many costs when we permit inhumanity and racism to continue.
We value each and every child, and all adults. Everyone should be safe in their community. Children's Institute shares in the responsibility for all of us to work to end the pattern of abuse and the resulting fatal cycle perpetrated against people of color - our communities' mothers, fathers, and children.
COVID-19 Resources for Families
Children’s Institute knows that children’s social emotional health is greatly impacted by times of anxiety and the recent news about COVID-19. Visit our resources page on how to share information such as this with young children as well as other useful topics to help children and their families navigate through the current situation.
PLEASE NOTE: You can continue to reach any Children's Institute staff member by calling 585-295-1000 or through email. We are working at this time from home offices and will respond in a timely manner.
