Upcoming Webinars
APRIL 23
Learning from Student Perspectives
As we approach the final months of a historical year of schooling, what have we learned from students about their experiences? How can we continue to support young people’s learning, well-being, and relationships based on what students say they need? Young people nationwide have been vocalizing how the COVID-19 pandemic is affecting their lives – from the complex challenges they faced to the opportunities they seized. Join YouthTruth as they examine and compare findings from student voice surveys taken before and during the pandemic. Hear how this data is informing efforts in school communities, and how a focus on social and emotional learning (SEL) can help ensure a responsive and adaptive approach. Recommended for educators and practitioners, attendees will leave with tools to use right away to begin to build the critical connection between youth voice and SEL.
MAY 21
American Rescue Plan Act: Funding Social and Emotional Learning
With historic levels of funding in education available, how is your community making connections to SEL in your budget priorities? The American Rescue Plan Act (ARP) offers an unparalleled opportunity for state and district leaders to make long-term investments in SEL to support students’ learning and development, promote educator SEL and well-being, deepen partnerships with families and communities, and create more inclusive and equitable learning environments. Join our webinar to learn more about how you can leverage ARP to bolster evidence-based implementation of SEL and fully support students, families and educators. Recommended for district and state leaders.
