SEL through school, family, and community partnerships.

This chapter explores the collaboration between schools, families, and communities in strengthening Social and Emotional Learning (SEL). It highlights how integrated SEL efforts enhance student well-being, academic success, and social competence through consistent support across multiple environments. Strategies for family engagement include workshops, home-based SEL activities, and culturally responsive practices. The chapter also examines community partnerships with local organizations, mentorship programs, and mental health services to extend SEL beyond the classroom. Case studies showcase successful school-community collaborations in marginalized areas, addressing challenges like limited resources, cultural barriers, and policy constraints. Finally, it offers recommendations for sustaining SEL initiatives through strategic partnerships, advocacy, and systemic integration.
