When It Is Used
Use it before priority setting, when the planning team needs to understand needs, assets, supports, and gaps in the current SEL implementation context.
SEL Needs & Resources Assessment
The SEL Needs & Resources Assessment is a practitioner-only planning baseline tool for SEL practitioners, school leaders, and planning teams. It helps organize current SEL needs, existing resources, available supports, and priority gaps so implementation priorities fit the school's starting point.
Explore a sample baseline map and save the assessment for your planning work.

What It Produces
The result is a baseline map and revisit-ready snapshots, not a final action plan.
Relevant Limitations
Exact prompts, categories, ratings, and worksheet structure remain unresolved until supplied. The product does not prescribe priorities or score implementation maturity.
Does this tool create an SEL action plan?
No. It creates a baseline picture of needs, resources, supports, and gaps that can later inform action planning.
Who selects priority gaps?
The practitioner or planning team selects priority gaps; the system organizes entries but does not score or determine priority.
Can the baseline be revisited later?
Yes. Prior baseline snapshots should be preserved so later changes do not overwrite the planning history.
Are sample baseline entries saved as real school data?
No. Fictional demo entries are not carried into the account as real owned baseline data by default.
