THE PROGRAM
As parents and caregivers, you are your child’s first and most important teachers, and play a vital role in their well-being and academic development. Your child’s classroom teachers are here to support you in this, and the Second Step family of programs is one of the tools they’re using.
Second Step programs combine discussions with fun activities and family resources. The programs help children learn human skills such as responsible decision-making, working together to solve problems, managing strong emotions, and getting along with others. These skills can help children succeed academically and socially.
The resources on this page provide information about human skills and the different Second Step programs. We’re proud to partner with your child’s school to offer our research-based, classroom-tested curricula that help make schools safe, supportive learning environments.
