Directions 2023: SEL, TRAUMA, & SCHool
connecting you to the experts
Each expert will be here for the day, presenting a longer, 85-minute session and two 55-minute sessions so you can either sample them all or soak up one for the whole time. The day will be worth 5 Illinois PD Hours.
FREE!
It's free to attend again this year, thanks to the Hub 5 SEL Grant from the Illinois State Board of Education. Due to space constraints, we'll be limiting registration, so be sure to get your name on the list (or the wait list!)
