Full Description: 

A gathering space for childcare collectives – and collectives to be – to discuss the work and the dream of building a truly intergenerational movement, aka a movement that will sustain itself across generations. This means doing childcare to support ‘adults’ who work today to resist systemic oppression and to create alternatives, and to illuminate, integrate and celebrate the political vision behind this work in our childcare practice.

From the nuts and bolts of cultivating a core collective and practicing imaginative play to the larger questions of: why is intergenerational movement building important, how is it happening, what more needs to be done, and what is our vision and strategy as a network, childcare collectives across the states are in virtual conversation now to create an agenda for a live meet-up at the USSF!
