4-Day Institute hosted by Francis W. Parker School, Chicago, IL

Multi-day professional development experiences facilitated by the IFSEL team

Goals:

• Build a deep, experiential understanding of core SEL principles and practices.
• Help educators cultivate in their teaching practice the humanity and empathy that can help them inspire students to evolve into compassionate leaders and resilient learners.
• Inform an educator’s perspective in ways that help spark creativity and renew inspiration for teaching.
• Strengthen an educator’s capacity to bring SEL to classroom and community in ways that transform a school.
