What is an SEL Interventionist?
The Social Emotional Learning Interventionist (SEL Interventionist) significantly contributes to the development of a healthy, safe, and caring environment. Such an environment is achieved by advancing the understanding of the social-emotional development of children and the influences of family, community, and cultural differences on student success along with the implementation of effective intervention strategies. The SEL Interventionist promotes and enhances the overall academic mission of Franklin Community Schools by providing mental health resources and supports that are student-centered, innovative and strengthen home, school, and community partnerships and address barriers to learning and achievement.
