Sign Up, Stay Informed

We’re working to foster the safety and well-being of children through social-emotional learning (SEL) and development—and we need your help.

The first step to positively transforming 100 million children’s lives by 2028 is staying informed.

Sign up here to receive advocacy updates, along with alerts on policies in motion in your state that affect children’s well-being. If there’s an opportunity for you to take action, we’ll let you know.

Add your name to our advocacy email list and become an advocate for SEL with Committee for Children. The information you provide here will be used only for advocacy-related activity with Committee for Children.

Together, we’ll help the world grow kinder.

Share Your Story

Do you have a story about how social-emotional learning (SEL) has made a difference in your life? We’d love to hear it! We’re looking for personal stories from parents, educators, and community members on how SEL has positively affected you, a child in your life, or even an entire classroom or community.
