MCEC aligns this comprehensive resource with Collaborative for Academic, Social and Emotional Learning (CASEL), Whole Child Design, Social Emotional Academic Development (S.E.A.D.), national resources, and the U.S. Surgeon General's Advisory on Youth Mental Health (2021) to provide support for the overall well-being of military-connected children and youth.
The MCEC parent webinars are designed to help military-connected parents as they guide their children through their educational journey.
