SEL Week

National SEL Week

March 1-5, 2027

National SEL week is a “SEL”ebration of social and emotional learning in every community in the United States, kicking off with International #SELDay! From March 1-5, we’re calling on leaders across the nation to advance social and emotional learning as a fundamental part of high-quality education for every child in every community.

Here’s how you can get involved:

  • Share on social media
  • Contact decision-makers to explain why  social and emotional learning is essential for every child’s academic success and overall well-being.
  • Educate your communities about the importance of social and emotional learning.
  • Sign up for activities during National SEL Week and  International #SELDay and use the toolkits to showcase, promote, and advocate for SEL
  • Organizations focused on youth, education, well-being, and who share a vision for a high-quality education that includes social and emotional learning, are invited to join the Leading with SEL Coalition in our advocacy and celebration. To learn more, contact CASEL’s Director of Policy, Asher Miller ([email protected])
Each year since 2023, the U.S. Senate has introduced a National SEL Week resolution to recognize the critical role SEL plays in supporting the academic success and overall well-being of students, educators, and families.
