This is the second edition of a systemic social-emotional learning program designed to create a positive school climate, teach social-emotional skills critical for wellbeing and competence in all students, and identify and establish additional resources within the school, family, and community to support high-risk students. The program is founded on positive psychology and research in resilience with a focus on meeting important needs of children surviving trauma, in addition to promoting healthy development and improving behavior and achievement in all students. The second edition provides research updates, incorporates additional information and strategies related to cultural issues and specific considerations for trauma survivors, and expands the guidelines for both schools/classrooms and families on positive behavior support.
