Tips & Tidbits
I recently attended a virtual series of presentations and panels led by directors of before/after school and summer programs for kids across the country about strategies for infusing SEL into curriculum and ensuring that social-emotional health is at the center of your organizational culture.
The recording of that webinar is not yet available, but if this is interesting to you, I definitely recommend checking out harmony SEL's collection of on-demand webinars on topics such as "Leveraging SEL to Elevate Student Voice and Family Engagement," and "The Power of Listening with Compassion and Mindfulness."
