Our strategic implementation guide equips you, the school leader or educator, to transform your campus into a thriving hub of social-emotional learning (SEL).

Grounded in research, the guide outlines five core competencies – Dignity, Navigating Social Dynamics, Emotional Awareness, Self-Regulation, and Reasonable Expectations – developed by Cultures of Dignity. These competencies serve as the building blocks for a robust SEL program, fostering students' ability to:

• Practice and master new skills

• Develop positive social interactions

• Manage emotions effectively

• Set and achieve goals

What sets this guide apart?

• Explicit, actionable strategies: Learn precisely how to integrate SEL into existing curricula (language arts, math, science, etc.) using a variety of effective methods like cooperative learning and project-based learning.

• Universal application: The guide empowers you to implement any transformative SEL curriculum, ensuring a perfect fit for your school's needs.

• School-wide, systemic approach: Create a positive learning environment where SEL is woven into all aspects of school life, fostering equitable outcomes for all students.

This guide is your key to:

• Building a culture of dignity.

• Equipping students with essential life skills.

• Fostering academic success and positive social interactions.

• Creating a thriving learning environment for all.
