The Trio Talent Search program is deeply committed to supporting the social and emotional well-being of its students. We recognize that academic success is closely linked to a student’s overall emotional and social health, which is why we incorporate various strategies to help students thrive in all areas of their lives.

Grade-Specific Social-Emotional Workbooks: To further support students, we provide grade-specific social-emotional workbooks that students can choose to work on during homework labs or at home. These workbooks are designed to help students reflect on their emotions, develop coping strategies, and build skills that promote positive mental health and well-being.
Biweekly Social-Emotional Learning Workshops: We host biweekly workshops in our high school homework labs, where students engage in discussions and activities that focus on building essential social and emotional skills. These workshops cover topics such as self-awareness, stress management, resilience, effective communication, and conflict resolution.
Safe and Inclusive Environment: We are dedicated to creating a safe and inclusive space for all students. Our workshops, homework labs, and events are designed to be welcoming and supportive, ensuring that every student feels valued and understood regardless of their background or identity.
Holistic Support and Mentoring: Beyond the academic aspect, we provide individualized guidance and mentoring to help students navigate challenges, both inside and outside the workshops and homework labs. Our program encourages students to express their concerns and provides strategies for coping with personal issues, academic stress, and any other challenges they may face.
Community Building Events: The program also organizes social events and group activities that encourage students to form connections, build friendships, and engage with peers in a positive, supportive setting. These events help foster a sense of belonging and community.
Access to Resources: In addition to our direct support, we connect students and families with additional social-emotional resources, including counseling services and wellness programs, to ensure that all aspects of a student's well-being are cared for.
