Who We Are
About the Race Matters Consortium
The Race Matters Consortium (The Consortium) is a diverse group of
child welfare experts representing research, policy, administration,
practice, and advocacy , who first joined together in 1999 to
systematically examine disproportional representation of individuals of
different races and ethnic groups in the child welfare system. Today
the Consortium has expanded to not only examine the disproportional
representation, but to get a better understanding of those practices
that will address the needs of children of color more appropriately,
and to collaborate with others who understand the need for attention to
the issues in an effort to influence change in child welfare practice
and policy.
