The Center on the Social and Emotional Foundations for Early
Learning (CSEFEL) is a national resource center for disseminating
research and evidence-based practices to early childhood programs
across the country. CSEFEL is focused on promoting the social
emotional development and school readiness of young children
birth to age 5. To support this goal, we have developed a conceptual
model of evidence-based practices for promoting young children's
social emotional competence and preventing and addressing challenging
behavior.
The Center on the Social and Emotional Foundations
for Early Learning is a five-year project designed to strengthen
the
capacity of Head Start and child care programs to improve
the social and emotional outcomes of young children.
The Center
will develop training and technical assistance (T/TA) materials
that reflect evidence-based practices for
promoting
children's social and emotional development and preventing
challenging behaviors. The Center will then work with professional
organizations and Head Start and child care T/TA providers
to ensure the use of the evidence-based practices in local
demonstration sites. View a Flyer about the Center on the
Social and Emotional Foundations for Early Learning.
The
Center maintains a National Advisory Board of professionals
and experts from a variety of fields.
