Social Emotional Learning

Social Emotional Learning (SEL) is the process through which children and adults understand and manage emotions, set and achieve positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions. The following resources share evidenced-based SEL programs as well as specific examples of SEL interventions.


An initial Guide to Leveraging the Power of Social Emotional Learning as you Prepare to Reopen and Renew Your School Community

Collaborative for Academic Social and Emotional Learning created this guide to offer actionable recommendations to help school leadership prepare for the SEL needs of all students and educators.
