The Social-Emotional Learning Hub For Black People
BLACK SEL AND INNOVATION
BREAKOUT SESSION
The time for innovation is now. Here’s why… The time is now to innovate because the old way is not meeting the needs of all students (and staff too). In this breakout session, come hear why the time is now to shift away from antiquated practices, which are rooted in deficit thinking. You will learn how to begin recognizing and responding to the unmet needs of Black youth. Importantly, you will hear practical strategies of how to meet the unmet needs of Black youth through innovative practices. You will leave this session energized, inspired, and ready to move towards action.
