Through expert facilitation, coaching, and consultation, our multidisciplinary team helps K–12 education staff and leaders reflect on and adapt practices to shift values, mindsets, biases, and beliefs for transformational impact on individual, collective, and systemic levels. Together, we implement and sustain improvement efforts engaging staff, students, and families as partners to co-create equitable conditions for learning.
How We Help
We help you implement, scale, and improve initiatives related to safe and supportive learning environments (SSLE) using an approach that meets your specific goals.
Safe and Supportive Learning Environments Essentials
The SSLE Essentials course is a nine-part professional learning series for K–12 staff and leaders. It provides practical and manageable insights to create and sustain safe and supportive learning environments. This series can be delivered onsite or virtually and includes synchronous learning and peer collaboration plus asynchronous practice and reflection.
Safe and Supportive Learning Environments Deep Dives
We offer a virtual series of Deep Dives designed to benefit educators in local educational agencies (LEAs), state educational agencies (SEAs), or related agencies wishing to explore the topics covered in Essentials in more depth.
Each Deep Dive includes six 90-minute sessions via Zoom with approximately one hour of practice and reflection between sessions.

Connecting Research With Practice
Rather than adding another framework or program to pre-existing SSLE-related efforts, our offerings are designed to help you synthesize and apply a broad cluster of research-based content and culturally responsive practices. We emphasize collaboration and local contexts and prioritize language that removes stigma and simplifies similar or overlapping concepts.
As new research and evidence-based frameworks emerge in the field, our team develops our curriculum iteratively with subject matter experts and field professionals alongside districts and state educational agencies.
