Foundations of Belonging: Proactive Boundary Building

Foundations of Belonging: Proactive Boundary Building

Description: In this third in a series of three trainings, educators will learn three strategies for proactively creating, communicating and maintaining boundaries as a tool to build belonging. Educators will learn the differences between porous, rigid and healthy boundaries, will practice communicating their boundaries using tried and true sentence starters, and will get access to Beyond Differences exclusive Boundary Guidebook for students to help them build communities of belonging where everyone’s boundaries are respected. 

Presenter Information: Beyond Differences is on a mission to inspire students to end social isolation by creating cultures of belonging. They do this through their National Teen Board, by offering free Social Emotional Learning lessons for three National Days of Action, and with free professional development training for educators.
