Adult Transformative SEL

Transformative SEL creates a culture of well-being by providing structures for adult connection, collaboration, co-learning, co-creation and self- and community-care.

Focusing on adults’ social and emotional capacities improves their well-being, creates positive work environments, increases feelings of competence and supports embodiment, modeling, coaching and nurturing of Transformative SEL in students.

All levels of the educational system, including the district, school and policy levels, can be engaged to support adult Transformative SEL.

Our online modules walk users through each element of the Transformative SEL Framework and include examples of how adults can strengthen their own practices in alignment with the standards.
