Children experience emotions just as strongly as we do. They look to us for strength, guidance and wisdom. We teach our children how to read and write, but when it comes to their feelings
we leave them in the dark.
We need to give our children the tools to transform fear into compassion, anger into passion, loss into love... Change begins with our children.

Emotional Literacy is the alphabet, grammar and vocabulary of our emotional language, the language of all relationships! Emotional Literacy is the antidote to a range of social ills -- such as violence, disease, and depression -- and the key to healthy and vital relationships. (Read more about emotional literacy and how it benefits children and society).
This campaign is a concerted effort to ensure all children develop the vital life-skills of emotional literacy at home and in school.
