CORE Districts: Creating Cultures of Dignity Deep Dive with Carey Goldstein

Using dignity to frame our work with young people is a transformative call for action where we can better understand young people and create communities where children can thrive. In addition, no generation of educators has had to educate their students during the social media revolution we experienced in the last decade and during a global pandemic. As educators help young people navigate a constantly changing educational environment, we know a few things are certain: the importance of our relationships with young people and building their emotional well-being and social skills. But these skills are not “soft skills;” they are essential for young people so they can engage in their education, manage their emotions and become responsible and positive members of a community.
