The Benefits of SEL

• SEL builds social and emotional skills that increase student engagement and lead to improved academic performance.

• SEL can cultivate caring relationships, safe and supportive environments, social and emotional skills that buffer against mental health risks.

• Participation in SEL programs is linked to decreased emotional stress, more positive attitudes about self and others, and fewer externalizing behaviors and discipline problems.

• SEL enhances coping skills, resiliency, and emotion identification, which can help reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety in the short term.

• Students participating in SEL report an increased sense of safety and support, better relationships with teachers, and stronger feelings of belonging and inclusiveness in schools.

• SEL contributes to reductions in bullying and aggression.
