SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL LEARNING
The importance of social and emotional learning (SEL) within our schools has never been more apparent. Pennies for Patients integrates core SEL competencies into schools and communities in an organic, philanthropic, and engaging way.
" SEL is Pennies for Patients....and Pennies for Patients is SEL. I personally have seen it at work in classrooms across my school district. This program helps us teach our students the importance of service above self & helping others."
