Charleston, S.C., April 24, 2018 -- Today marks the inaugural SEL in Afterschool Day, an opportunity for education organizations, practitioners, funders, and experts to celebrate social and emotional learning (SEL) and afterschool.
The milestone day, led by WINGS for Kids, a nationwide afterschool program focused solely on SEL, serves as a touchpoint for thought leaders in the space to amplify their collective voice in support of SEL in afterschool.

More than 20 education organizations are joining WINGS in the effort, posting data, best practices, success stories, and graphics in support of SEL in afterschool on social media using the hashtag #SELinAfterschool. Partners include CASEL, Boys and Girls Clubs of America, Afterschool Alliance, and the Aspen Institute’s National Commission on Social, Emotional, and Academic Development.
“We are proud to partner with so many organizations on this effort to celebrate and build awareness about the incredible opportunities for learning and growth that afterschool SEL programs provide,” said Bridget Laird, CEO of WINGS for Kids. “We see the power of afterschool SEL programming firsthand, and we are excited to join with these leaders to highlight this work with broader community.”
Research shows that when kids regularly participate in high-quality afterschool SEL programs, they have improved behavior, earn better grades and test scores, and feel a stronger attachment to school. Kids are also less likely to engage in bullying, aggressive behavior, and drug use.
“When SEL and afterschool come together, amazing things can happen,” said Laird. “We will continue to share our stories and successes showing the positive, lasting impact of SEL in afterschool. Together, we can help all kids develop the skills they need to succeed and thrive in life.”
