Coming in response to the increased incidence of mental health issues among children and teenagers, the new SEL curricula is designed as a valuable resource of educators across the US. Recent figures show that 20% of teenagers are likely to experience mental health problems in any year – and over half of long-term mental health conditions are established by the age of 14.
Aware of the importance of early education for mental health, Hope Rising creates SEL curricula based on the latest research on the impact of hope on optimal cognitive and emotional development.
The “My Best Me” approach to SEL consists of a series of flexible lessons that aim to build bridges between students, educators, families, and the larger communities. By activating multiple social factors involved in child development, the activities promote optimal social integration and reduce the risks associated with social isolation and a lack of communication.
The five core concepts of Hope curricula – identity, health, community, environment, and economy – offer a framework for educators to adapt the learning materials to the needs of their classrooms by focusing on any particular aspects needed. The activities can also be integrated in other school subjects to foster better learning, increased openness, and better overall academic performance.
“The My Best Me curriculum contributes to the mental health and well-being of students while enhancing their social and emotional competencies,” explained a company spokesperson. “Our unique approach develops the psycho-social skills of students through age and grade appropriate strategies that will help build adaptive and positive behavior.”
