State-Level Policy Impact: California
- CRTWC was selected for representation on both California Department of Education Task Forces regarding SEL in California.
- CRTWC was invited to participate in the California Collaborative States Initiative (a 2-year project that aimed to create a set of SEL guidelines for the state of California). A set of SEL guiding principles were developed in 2019, which include specific attention to the importance of preservice teacher education and ongoing professional development in developing teachers’ social, emotional, and cultural competencies.
