Body, Mind, and Spirit: Self Care for Caregivers
Learn how to take care of your whole self through integration of body, mind, and spirit. Integration is an act of self-care, which ultimately enables us to take better care of others. Based on latest research about emotional intelligence, dynamic mindfulness, and social and emotional learning (SEL), an interactive workshop introduces evidence-based strategies to build our personal toolkits for self-care. Follow-up coaching focuses on building consistent practices for adults and extensions for children.

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) 101
SEL 101 connects the field of SEL to positive youth development, behavior management, character education, and more. Grounded in a dominant framework from the Collaborative for Academic, Social, Emotional Learning, better known as CASEL, the interactive workshop unpacks the “CASEL 5” competencies. Understanding of SEL basics enables youth-serving professionals to amplify what they are already doing to develop SEL competencies and build knowledge and access to resources to integrate evidence-based strategies into their practices. Drawing from guides like Preparing Youth to Thrive: Promising Practices for Social & Emotional Learning and Navigating SEL from the Inside Out: Looking Inside & Across 25 Leading SEL Programs: A Practical Resource for Schools and OST Providers, participants will leave the session with concrete strategies to try. Follow-up sessions will include detailed planning and implementation support for a comprehensive SEL practice plan.

Evidence-Based SEL Approaches to Conflict Resolution
Effective SEL approaches are sequenced, active, focused, and explicit (SAFE) and holistically support child and youth development. Acknowledging that comprehensive SEL approaches are best, this session will provide a deep dive into several evidence-based SEL approaches to examine their tools for conflict resolution. Participants will explore conflict resolution examples from Responsive Classroom, Playworks, and RULER. Participants will leave the workshop with a better understanding of how to use these tools and how they fit into the broader scope of SEL.
