CASEL CARES: The Urgency of Educational Equity Now (with John King and Karen Pittman)

CASEL CARES is an initiative that connects our community with experts to address how SEL can be most helpful in response to today’s circumstances. The Education Trust’s John King and Forum For Youth Investment’s Karen Pittman will offer reflections on existing inequities in education that have been exposed and exacerbated by the pandemic.

Key Takeaways:
• Use the twin disruptions of the pandemic and racial unrest to reimagine schooling.
• Will require honest conversations about historic and ongoing racial disparities in everything from school discipline to health care.
• Use a social justice lens when implementing SEL. Focus on integration: SEL and academics; schools, community organizations, and families.
