   Making the Connection Between Health Education and SEL

   Health education closely aligns with the social and emotional learning (SEL) concepts embraced by many schools. In this episode, guests Michelle Rawcliffe and Emily Zien discuss the current work of SHAPE America’s National Health Education Council to update the 2019 Health Education/SEL Crosswalk. They explain that the goal of the updated document is to advocate for and support health educators in their efforts to teach social, emotional, and mental health content, while also developing students’ social, emotional, and mental health literacy skills. Michelle Rawcliffe, michelledrawcliffe@gmail.com (mailto:michelledrawcliffe@gmail.com), is the Chair of SHAPE America’s National Health Education Council and the curriculum and content manager of CATCH Global Foundation.
