CASEL – Collaborative for Academic, Social and Emotional Learning »
Social and emotional learning is a process for helping children and even adults develop the fundamental skills for life effectiveness.
We envision a world where families, schools, and communities work together to promote children’s success in school and life and to support the healthy development of all children. In this vision, children and adults are engaged life-long learners who are self-aware, caring and connected to others, and responsible in their decision-making. Children and adults achieve to their fullest potential, and participate constructively in a democratic society.
