Social-Emotional Learning for At-Risk Youth
As part of our broader effort to integrate a three-pronged Social-Emotional Development Strategy to build youth self-management, social awareness, and a growth mindset into all of our programs, we launched the pilot of Peaceful Connection, a youth violence prevention program in October 2022. It has been so successful that we want to expand Peaceful Connection to our fourth Club in Bell Gardens, and install a Calm Corner, a safe space where youth can learn tools to self-regulate.
