About [Edit]
Our mission is to make teaching social responsibility a core practice in education so that young people develop the convictions and skills
to shape a safe, sustainable, democratic, and just world.
ESR is a national leader in educational reform. Our work spans the fields of social and emotional learning, character education, conflict resolution, diversity education, civic engagement, prevention programming, youth development, and secondary school improvement. We offer comprehensive programs, staff development, consultation, and resources for adults who teach children and young people preschool through high school, in settings including K-12 schools, early childhood centers and afterschool programs.
Our work falls into three broad areas:
Student Skill Development: ESR works with teachers to help students develop social skills, emotional competencies, and qualities of character that increase interpersonal effectiveness, and reduce intolerance and aggressive, anti-social behavior.
School and Classroom Climate: We help schools create safe, caring, respectful, and disciplined learning environments that promote healthy development and academic success for all students.
Response to social crises and world events: ESR helps educators respond effectively to local, national, and international crises related to interpersonal and systemic violence, intolerance, and global conflicts and war. We also help with teacher renewal after such crises.
