Emotional wellness, social skills, and life skills are important tools for everyone to develop as they transition from childhood to adulthood. Individuals who are well socially and emotionally tend to get along better with others, accomplish more, and generally are more happy. They’ve learned how to view themselves positively, evaluate challenges, interact with others, and choose appropriate responses – especially in times of stress or other challenges.

Individuals who don’t get the support they need to develop socially and emotionally are at increased risk for:

Behavioral issues

Controlling disappointment, anger and aggression

Depression and Anxiety

Poor self-image

Lack of confidence

Bullying/Cyberbullying

Poor academic performance

Poor athletic performance

Self-destructive behavior

Alcohol, vaping and drug use as a teenager and young adult

Self-Harm and Suicide
