Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Intersectionality, as discussed by Kimberle Crenshaw, is a contemporary social and legal framework used to assess the ways in which intersections of race, ethnicity, class, gender, or other “axes of difference” (e.g. disability status, stigmatized involvement in the child protective service system) may impact health (Crenshaw, 2004). Contextualizing the “multiplicity of oppression,” this framework allows for the illumination of the complex relationships and interactions between, for example, race, gender and disability, and the ways in which these factors can impact or structure the realities of vulnerable populations.
  2. AFCARS disability definition : Physical, visual, hearing, mental retardation or major medical condition
  3. H 1 : Black adoptees with disabilities - longest wait
  4. STATE AGENCY REACH OUT TO FAMILIES OF COLOR PLEASE ADOPT – INFORM COMMUNITY ABOUT THESE DATA – GIVING THEM CHOICES ABOUT BECOMING INVOLVED FIRST, STEPS, GUARDIANSHIPS, MENTORING TO ADOPTION OR PRAY FOR A CHILD = CONGREGATION TAKE ON CHILD BLACK ORGS AND COMMUNITY AGENCIES NOT ONLY THE CHURCH BEING IN THE COMMUNITY WITHOUT ASKING FOR ANYTHING MIGHT HELP TOO – STREET CRED.
