Social Emotional Learning

EDMO is on a mission to cultivate the next generation of courageous and kind humans. We know that this takes a special set of skills, ones that are not often explicitly taught. Skills like critical thinking, problem solving and empathy that help kids and adults navigate friendships, overcome challenges and build resiliency. That’s why we worked with Vicki Zakrzewski at the UC Berkeley Greater Good Center (and a consultant on the movie Inside Out) to design The EDMO Method®, our very own SEL framework which we integrate into everything we do.
