PCLT STAFF

PCLT is among the national leaders in developing resources within schools and communities. PCLT brings out the leadership in everyone, and has proven methods for building skills and effectiveness. There is no organization that I admire more, or trust more, than PCLT when it comes to working with the social-emotional needs of schools, parents, and youth.
- Maurice Elias, Ph.D., Rutgers University, Vice-Chair, Leadership Team, Collaborative to Advance Social and Emotional Learning (CASEL)
