Making Caring Common
We partner with families and educators, and work with the media, to share research-informed strategies that help children develop empathy, self-awareness, and a commitment to fairness. Making Caring Common, a project of the Harvard Graduate School of Education, helps educators, parents, and communities raise children who are caring, responsible to their communities, and committed to justice.
