The Committee for Children will support Tinker’s grantee Atentamente in expanding its current social-emotional learning (SEL) programming in preschools and early primary schools in Campeche, Quintana Roo, and Yucatán. The SEL curriculum will integrate language and culture revitalization with input from local indigenous educators. To ensure the longevity of these practices, Atentamente will train supervisors and school leaders in SEL concepts.
