Building Trust
The essence of social-emotional learning (SEL) thrives in trusting environments when it is embedded into all interactions with our youth and one another. Genuine SEL integration into interactions is essential, but it can be challenging to achieve.
Shifting paradigms, mindsets, and traditional classroom delivery styles often is met with resistance. The Building Trusted Spaces®: Training of Trainers positively influences over 95% of those participating, even most naysayers.
The Power of Trust
Research speaks loud and clear: trusted relationships are essential for social, emotional, and mental well-being. Our training turns this knowledge into real, actionable skills. Trusted relationships serve as the antidote to the stressors faced by youth and adults. They nurture resilience, efficacy, responsibility, compassion, empathy, and positive decision-making skills, while fostering fundamental identity development. Educators often need more training and experience to navigate these emotional times with their students. Our program fills this gap, helping educators do it effectively.
While good intentions are common, students' experiences can differ. Recognizing this disconnect can transform the dynamics in a classroom and the overall campus culture.
