| Amy McConnell Franklin amymcconnellfranklin@gmail.com 575-779-8124 Ph.D., M.Ed. MPH, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, trained with Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence, Certified Trainer with 6 SecondsExpertise in Training trainers, Consultation, Research | “I am the Founding Co-Chair of the Social and Emotional Learning Alliance for New Mexico (SEL4NM.org,) and a member of the Steering Committee for Karanga – the global alliance for SEL and Life Skills. As the Director of the Taos County SEL Community Catalyst training project and as an educational consultant in emotional intelligence and mindful social and emotional learning for more than two decades I know these skills must be developed across communities and start with the adults. These essential life skills are teachable, learnable and become more agile and permanent with intentional practice. SEL must be grounded in local culture and context and needs to be culturally informed and affirming. This is old wine in a new bottle. The development of these skills is a part of every culture, life philosophy, spiritual tradition and robust research indicates that these skills have profound positive impact on wellbeing, physical and mental health, academic achievement, career success, relationships, and life satisfaction. Developing these skills in children and youth starts with the adults in their lives. All young people deserve to be surrounded by adults who are self aware, able to navigate their own emotions, and who are intentional in their interactions and decision making. It is a matter of equity.” |
