SELFY is a social and emotional support program that focuses on health and wellness, mindfulness, and education through dialogue, open communication, and team building activities. Through utilization of CASEL's 5 Core Competencies in Social & Emotional Learning (SEL) - social awareness, self-awareness, responsible decision-making, self-management, & relationship skills - SELFY aims to promote health and wellbeing in young people by creating greater self and community awareness. With support from program facilitators, middle school age youth engage in activities that promote discussion, role-playing, and critical thinking to develop resilience, enhance communication skills, improve decision making, and cultivate greater connection to their own thoughts and feelings as well as others.
