SEL encourages trusting relationships, a sense of purpose and belonging, skill development, and the contribution of learners to their communities. Within the contexts of SEL, schools and communities can support their people to reach their fullest potentials. It promotes opportunities and environments that support lifelong learning and equity in education.

There are studies conducted with tens of thousands of students that suggested that SEL strengthened students’ academic success. 2015 research found that there is a $11 return on every $1 spent on SEL programming.
