We at IFSEL are passionate about SEL! We want to learn more about your districts and schools, and share our SEL implementation experience.

We are offering 15 minute 'non-salesy' meetings for any educator.

To make this a productive 15 minutes, you can use our SEL Audit & Reflection Tool and we can review your responses when we meet or we can discuss other topics.

We promise to make this meeting worth your time.
