Description: The mission of Teaching Tolerance is “to reduce prejudice, improve intergroup relations and support equitable school experiences for our nation’s children.” Teaching Tolerance provides free resources to educators—teachers, administrators, counselors, library staff, and other practitioners—who work with children from kindergarten through high school. The materials include professional development resources that library staff can use to improve their own understanding of issues related to diversity and inclusiveness, as well as materials they can use with youth. The materials provided by Teaching Tolerance will help library staff create civil and inclusive library “communities where children are respected, valued and welcome participants.”
