Introduction to Social Emotional Learning and Racial Equity
Join us ONLINE on Tuesday September 27, 2022.
Introduction to Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and Racial Equity introduces social and emotional learning in the context of a critical and anti-racist framework. This learning experience is for all educators and leaders committed to their own growth and development related to SEL and Racial Equity. It will provide shared language and a foundation to understand the relationship between racism and SEL. It will explore the various fears people face when engaging in racialized work and conversations, as well as effective frameworks to counter those fears. Lastly, this session will give participants an opportunity to explore some of the pitfalls of Social Emotional Learning and Equity, along with some of the recommendations to address the pitfalls. Facilitators understand and are responsive to the sensitivity of racialized conversations, the potential for harm among racial minority participants, the different lived experiences people bring and the various levels of engagement people have in this work.
This event will be online via Zoom and the invitation will be sent the day before to all who are registered for this event.
