"Children learn more from what you are than what you teach".
-W.E.B. DuBois
The mission of Children’s CommUNITY is to provide empowering opportunities for children, families, and youth organizations to explore interculturalism and equity in an inclusive environment.

​We provide diversity workshops, children’s programs, and consulting. We serve children (ages 0-18), parents or guardians, and community organizations in the Bellingham and greater Washington region. 

Our goal is to facilitate meaningful learning opportunities in a collaborative, respectful, and caring way. We are here to value varying perspectives and to develop and shift our lenses together to think about things differently. We believe it's never too early- or too late to contribute to making this world a better place.

Learning Together

​You've come to the right place!
Join us to ignite profound change in ourselves, our families, and our communities- and have fun along the way.
