SEL Day 2024

International SEL Day
5th Annual SEL Day
March 8, 2024
Today’s Students, Tomorrow’s Leaders

SEL Day is a global, grassroots campaign for social-emotional learning to support children’s academic recovery, mental health, and well-being. Since its inception in 2020, #SELday has reached over 40 million views.

Join us toward a shared goal: better school, work, and life opportunities for all students.

In 2023, over 4,000 SEL champions representing all 50 U.S. states and 87 countries made 11,000 commitments to showcase, promote, advocate, and support SEL. Advocacy efforts have resulted in SEL Day proclamations in fifteen states, a letter of support from the White House, and a bipartisan resolution for SEL Week introduced in the Senate. Learn more about SEL Day 2024 in this video.

Make your commitment today to showcase SEL in your community, promote SEL to your personal and professional networks, advocate SEL with your policymakers, and support SEL in your local schools, organizations, and community.

Attend our SEL Day Summit—your registration includes access to our free online event showcasing SEL best practices from states across the country and around the globe. Detailed agenda coming soon!

On this day, we aim to increase visibility and awareness of the benefits of social-emotional learning locally, regionally, nationally, and globally while celebrating the fifth annual International SEL Day on Friday, March 8, 2024.
