Program Services - Training and ImplementationCore - Part III, Line 4a2011-2012 Achievements 1. Online training and implementation support-Goal: To provide high-quality, efficient and accessible training and support to ensure successful implementation of our programs. The 4th edition Second Step Program, EARLY LEARNING THROUGH GRADE 8, includes a suite of user-friendly online resources and tools, including training, parent materials, evaluation tools, and videos. We also LAUNCHED OUR FIRST COHORT OF THE SECOND STEP LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE, A ONE-YEAR HYBRID LIVE AND ONLINE COURSE FOR DISTRICT-LEVEL SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL LEARNING LEADERS. 2. Implementation research-Goal: With funding from the Raikes Foundation, we have been partnering with 3 high-needs middle schools in the Seattle/Tacoma area to conduct a qualitative study to identify barriers to adoption, implementation, and sustainability of Second Step: Student Success through Prevention. During this THIRD year of the project, we DEVELOPED AND TESTED A SET OF JUST-IN-TIME LESSON PREPARATION VIDEOS THAT ARE EMAILED TO TEACHERS JUST BEFORE THEY TEACH A SECOND STEP LESSON. LESSONS LEARNED FROM THIS PROJECT WILL BE INCORPORATED INTO ALL OF OUR PROGRAMS. 3. Program Evaluation-Goal: To partner with university researchers to conduct evaluations on Committee for Children's programs. Research and program evaluation partnerships include the University of Washington, the University of Oregon, University OF NEW HAMPSHIRE, CRIMES AGAINST CHILDREN RESEARCH CENTER, University of Illinois Urbana Champaign, Wichita State University, and the University of Rochester Medical Center.
Program Services - Community EducationCore - Part III, Line 4b2011-2012 Achievements 1. Media outreach-Goal: To increase community awareness of social and emotional learning, bullying prevention, and child sexual abuse prevention through media partners. Committee for Children's Steps to Respect bullying prevention program was featured in NATIONAL SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL, TIME, SESAME WORKSHOP PRESSROOM, MIDLAND DAILY NEWS, MIDDLEBORO GAZETTE, MADISON TIMES, THE PORTLAND PRESS HERALD, AND VICTORVILLE DAILY PRESS. IN ADDITION, COMMITTEE FOR CHILDREN WAS INVITED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE SYMPOSIUM ON YOUTH MEANNESS AND CRUELTY AT HARVARD'S BERKMAN CENTER AND THE LAUNCH OF LADY GAGA'S BORN THIS WAY FOUNDATION. 2. Conferences, presentations, publications-Goal: To disseminate research findings on bullying prevention, social and emotional learning, and child sexual abuse prevention. Findings from the 33-school randomized control trial of the Steps to Respect program, conducted with generous funding from the Raynier Institute and Foundation, were PUBLISHED IN THE JOURNAL SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY REVIEW. IN ADDITION TO PRESENTATIONS AT SEVERAL NATIONAL CONFERENCES, FINDINGS FROM THE STUDY WERE SHARED WITH THE INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH COMMUNITY AT THE EUROPEAN NETWORK FOR SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL COMPETENCE CONFERENCE IN MANCHESTER, ENGLAND.
Program Services - PROGRAM DEVELOPMENTCore - Part III, Line 4c2011-2012 Achievements 1. Program development-Goal: To support the ongoing design and maintenance of our core programs. During this year, Committee for Children released a BRAND NEW PROGRAM FOR CHILDREN AGES THREE TO FIVE CALLED SECOND STEP: SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL SKILLS FOR EARLY LEARNING. THE PROGRAM USES SHORT DAILY ACTIVITIES, "BRAIN BUILDER" GAMES, SONGS, AND PUPPETS TO TEACH SELF-REGULATION AND EXECUTIVE FUNCTION SKILLS THAT HELP YOUNG CHILDREN LEARN, AS WELL AS SKILLS TO MANAGE THEIR FEELINGS, MAKE FRIENDS, AND SOLVE PROBLEMS. ONLINE RESOURCES FOR TEACHERS AND PARENTS HELP SUPPORT PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION AND REINFORCEMENT OF KEY SKILLS. 2. Product registration-Goal: To acquire customer data to support implementation. Committee for Children's programs now have the ability to be registered online with a unique number. Registration provides the teacher/counselor with access to a host of online resources, including an interactive teaching guide, program implementation guide, family letters that can be emailed to parents, and much more. When teachers register their curriculum, we know which programs are being taught in which schools, and by whom, allowing us to remain engaged with educators throughout their implementation. We also are able to use web analytics to inform enhancements to program development. 3. Partnership development-Goal: To build partnerships to expand Committee for Children's reach, impact, and effectiveness. As part of our International outreach, we have partners in 14 countries who are translating and distributing the Second Step program to schools in their respective countries. During the year we partnered with THE CONDITIONS FOR LEARNING COALITION, ESTABLISHED TO LOBBY CONGRESS FOR FEDERAL ELEMENTARY AND SECONDARY EDUCATION ACT LEGISLATION TO SUPPORT AND FUND SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL LEARNING. THE GROUP IS CURRENTLY ADVISING THE US DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION ON HOW TO INCORPORATE THE WORK THAT WAS PREVIOUSLY MANAGED WITHIN THE OFFICE OF SAFE & DRUG-FREE SCHOOLS, INTO THE ELEMENTARY AND SECONDARY EDUCATION DEPARTMENT.
