SEL Improves Outcomes & Lives
A SEL curriculum will prepare your students for success through building resilience, awareness and empathy. Our curriculum is focused on:
Creative expression to help students build problem solving skills and discover the power of words
Family focus to assist students and family members in understanding the power of support
Teaching students to set SMART goals to create hope, identify dreams, and develop a sense of purpose
Developing empathy through an expanded worldview, increased cultural awareness, and tolerance
Building self confidence and self esteem so that students have self efficacy and self knowledge
Why Social Emotional Learning Matters
Unprecedented Change
Students’ lives have changed in an unprecedented way due to COVID-19. If schools don’t reopen it is estimated that 10m+ students will drop out of school.
Increased Anxiety among Teens
According to the NIH, 1 in 3 teens will experience an anxiety disorder. Between 2007 and 2012 anxiety disorders rose by 20%.
Better Outcomes
Social Emotional Learning curriculums increase outcomes for students in all measured areas, with a 57% increase in skills – casel.org

Debra A. Postil
Women Wonder Writers Executive Director & Co-Founder
After spending years prosecuting homicides and participating in parole hearings, Debra realized crime problems can’t be solved with a one size fits all approach and are best solved with community support through the arts within schools and correction facilities.She has the unique perspective of not only being a criminal prosecutor, but also heading up Women Wonder Writers, a non-profit that brings trauma-informed teachers and artists to prisons, with The Write of Your L!fe ~ Beyond Bars. Our trauma-informed instructors give students the tools to transform their idle time into opportunities to build and restore confidence through healthy self-expression.
