In this report, RAND researchers describe the Partnerships for Social and Emotional Learning Initiative--which is an effort to explore whether and how children benefit when schools and out-of-school time programs partner to improve and align social and emotional learning--as well as what it takes to do this work. The researchers report findings and early lessons from the first two years of implementation in the six participating communities.

These middle school lesson plans are part of the Countering Truth Decay initiative, which is focused on restoring the role of facts, data, and analysis in U.S. political and civil discourse. The lesson plans introduce students to public policy research and emphasize the importance of media literacy skills. RAND researchers developed these lessons as a way to improve RAND's outreach to youth in ways that also help counter Truth Decay.

This report offers practical guidance for out-of-school-time programs and out-of-school-time intermediaries that wish to incorporate social and emotional learning activities into their programming for youth. The lessons are derived from the RAND Corporation's study over four years of more than 100 afterschool programs across six communities participating in The Wallace Foundation's Partnerships for Social and Emotional Learning Initiative.
