Youth Wellness
Fly By Nature Foundation is a DC-based 501(c)(3) Non-Profit Organization that empowers DC area youth, school staff, and caregivers by strengthening their knowledge, skills, and attitudes to heal from childhood trauma through our Social Emotional Learning curriculum.
Using the Collaborative for Academic Social and Emotional Learning (CASEL) 5 Core Competencies,
we designed our curriculum around healing-centered engagement and positive youth development.
Our trauma-informed approach helps caregivers, families, schools and students align with a common understanding around healing.
We have developed a Social-Emotional Learning curriculum and set of trauma-informed services to promote wellness among youth. Learn how to Excel with S.E.L.!
