Mindfulness, SEL: ‘Something Uniquely Human About That Ability to Connect and to Care’ [YouthToday.org]

 

Rick Alleva is a field specialist at the University of New Hampshire and co-author of a curriculum called “Courage to Care,” which promotes empathy for middle schoolers. He has been researching and promoting positive youth development and the use of mindful learning as well as social and emotional learning (SEML) for many years.

After graduating from Tufts University with a degree in psychology, he traveled cross-country, coming across many teenage runaways. That later heightened his interest in helping at-risk children in particular.
