Social-Emotional Learning Alliance for Massachusetts (SEL4MA) advocates for SEL in all MA communities – fewer problems & better relationships for all kids! Advocating for Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) in all communities in Massachusetts - our children deserve happiness and emotional fulfillment! The mission of SEL4MA is to help all young people succeed socially, emotionally and academically by advancing and supporting effective social and emotional learning programs, policies and practices in all schools and communities in Massachusetts. We envision Massachusetts schools and community education-serving groups as centers of safe, caring and supportive activity where youth and educators are empathetic, resilient, culturally aware and responsive, civically engaged and where young people develop the skills to solve problems, manage emotions and form positive relationships with others.
