Many discussions on equity often fail to center the needs of special education students. 

In this episode, we sat down with  Ashley Tucker, special educator, Dean, social-emotional learning enthusiast, and Ed Leadership student at Teachers College. On her Instagram she shares anti-racist, trauma-informed resources.  We discuss a variety of techniques and strategies parents and educators can use as they learn emotionally alongside their students.
