SUMMARY:SEL & Equity Webinar
DESCRIPTION:ss  SEL teaches the knowledge\, skills and attitudes that help students be successful in school\, college\, career and life. It supports healthy relationships and creates supportive learning environments for all students\, and it’s supported by a large research base demonstrating that it improves academic performance\, student behaviors\, and attitudes about school. SEL also strengthens skills necessary to do the work of Culturally Responsive-Sustaining Education (CR-SE) and Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion (DEI). It encourages greater self-awareness to see how our own lived experience shapes our worldview\, the ability use that self-awareness to inform thoughtful action\, the social awareness to see strengths in others and experience empathy toward them\, and the skills to build strong supportive relationships. All of these competencies are necessary to build school environments that nurture CR-SE and DEI\, and to create the deep relationships and sense of belonging that is central to our collective success. These skills are as beneficial to adults as they are to students\, and to be effective teachers of SEL\, we must first practice and model them ourselves. This session provides an overview of New York State’s Social Emotional Learning Benchmarks\, including recent revisions to center equity and adult SEL\, and includes recommendations and requirements for school counselors. \nPresenters' Bios: Carri Manchester is an Associate in the New York State Education Department (NYSED) Office of Student Support Services. Carri coordinates the agency’s current social emotional learning initiative\, working to encourage supportive educational communities that effectively support adults and prepare young people for success in school and life. At NYSED\, Carri works across offices to support adult SEL and increase awareness of its role in our collective work. Carri also coordinates the work of three Community Schools Technical Assistance Centers that provide technical assistance and professional development for districts working to target school buildings as community hubs to deliver co-located or school-linked programs and services to students and their families. \nVictor Rose is a licensed clinical social worker\, school counselor\, and master-credentialed alcoholism and substance abuse counselor in New York State. Currently\, Victor is a project coordinator in the Office of Student Support Services at the New York State Education Department. In this role\, Victor supports work around juvenile justice\, school counseling\, and mental health. Before joining the State Education Department\, Victor served as a school social worker in a mid-size urban school district for over four years. In addition\, Victor spent more than a decade working in various social services areas\, including foster care\, foster care prevention\, domestic violence\, substance use\, LGBT homeless services\, and residential treatment. \n  \nSponsored by a grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation This is a free webinar\, open to all\, but you must register Click HERE to Register on Zoom

SUMMARY:Middle and High School Counselors-WSCA Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Western Suffolk Counselors’ Association invites Middle and High School Counselors \nto a BREAKFAST WORKSHOP \nsponsored by Universal Technical Institute \nWednesday\, February 15\, 2023\, 8:00 AM – 10:00 AM\, Courtyard by Marriott\, 5000 Express Drive South Ronkonkoma \n“Gen Z: Knowing How Your Tik Toks” \n Speaker: Alisty Joy Keneth\, AJK Diversified\, Hicksville\, NY \nGeneration Z is the first generation to be totally immersed in the world of the Internet since birth. Their issues differ from other previous generations: remote school\, social media peer pressure\, school shoot­ings\, repercussions from the pandemic and even politics are new emerging topics for this generation. Tech­nol­o­gy plays a major role on why Gen Z’ers are so different. Grow­ing up in a hyper-con­nect­ed world has benefits\, but also can evoke internalized feel­ings of iso­la­tion and lone­li­ness. It can also fuel a steady drum­beat of neg­a­tive comments\, news sto­ries\, a fear of miss­ing out\, and shame in falling short of a social media-wor­thy standard. This workshop discusses issues facing Gen Z’ers like online predators\, revealing too much\, sexting\, cyberbullies\, one’s online work/school life\, epidemic of suicide\, vaping\, edibles and alcohol. Workshop participants will get a synopsis of issues and challenges specific to Gen Z’ers. \nPre-Registration is Required   Click here to register. \nWorkshop Fee is $5.00 \nPlease see Registration form for method of payment. \nFor further information\, contact WSCA at wsca@optonline.net or 631-209-0839
