In this session, you will learn about The Healing Library and how to begin lending kits of healing in your community for free. With over 20,000 downloads since launching in 2017, the kits are rooted in Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Every Child Ready to Read (ECRR) practices, and holistic art, play, environmental and biblio therapies. With adaptable designs and contents, kits are customizable to your library's needs as well as your community's needs, ensuring the best possible fit for your wellness needs.
