First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether a new social-emotional learning (SEL) program could be added to a STEM after-school program for youth aged 11-14. Researchers wanted to see if the program was practical and liked by staff and kids, and if it helped improve emotional skills, resilience, and overall well-being. The study involved 26 participants including youth, staff, and parents, and used surveys to measure results.
