WEBINAR: GTY’s inaugural web seminar for funders examined the history of social/emotional learning in U.S. education policy and practice, eliciting useful lessons for the current moment and focusing on the intersections among SEL, academic achievement and educational equity.

With an eye toward implications for grantmaking, we talked with our expert panelists about key policies and practices essential to ensuring all young people have opportunities to develop their social and emotional competencies. We kept the conversation grounded in the everyday reality of schools, communities and young people, and wrapped by identifying potential next steps for grantmakers interested in this vital conversation.

Brown earned her bachelor’s degree at Howard University and her law degree at Harvard University.
