Safe and Sound: An Education Leader's Guide to Evidence-Based Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) Programs CASEL, the Collaborative to Advance Social and Emotional Learning, based on a three-year study funded by the Institute of Education Sciences (IES) and the Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools (OSDFS) in the U.S. Department of Education, has published Safe and Sound, the most comprehensive and inclusive guide to SEL programming available. This guide provides a road map for schools and districts that are launching or adding social, emotional, and academic learning programs. The guide reviews 80 multiyear, sequenced SEL programs designed for use in general education classrooms. Among these programs are both comprehensive and more narrowly focused programs, such as drug education or anti-violence programs, that can be combined with others. Safe and Sound also offers guidance to educational leaders on how to integrate normally isolated or fragmented efforts with other school activities and academic instruction by providing a framework for “putting the pieces together.” You can download Safe and Sound and the companion CD-ROM documents for free at www.casel.org/safeandsound.htm, or for a fee order printed copies that include the CD-ROM from the Laboratory for Student Success (LSS) phone: 800-892-5550.
