This presentation features research-proven curricula and activities to lower behavior incidents, positively impact emotional wellness, and improve academic persistence in attendance and performance. The presentation is an informative, encouraging, and motivational tool for audiences. The session is important for those who work with black male youth in school, church, sports, or community organizations.
BRICK’s innovative approach to Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) empowers Black, Brown, and marginalized students to affirm their identities and embrace their cultural heritage. This professional development session will explore how BRICK’s curriculum equips students to honor themselves and their communities by fostering self-love, well-being, and empowerment. Educators will learn strategies to help students build a legacy rooted in truth, recognizing their roles as future leaders, elders, and ancestors.
