The National School Climate Center (NSCC) is a non-profit organization based in New York, focused on integrating social and emotional learning with academic instruction to improve student performance, reduce dropouts, and foster healthier, more engaged adults. It collaborates with the broader school community—teachers, staff, school-based mental health professionals, students, and parents—to translate research into practical guidelines, programs, and services that support whole-school improvement centered on school climate. The organization operates within the education sector, aiming to convert evidence on social-emotional learning into actionable strategies for schools. NSCC positions itself as a facilitator of evidence-based practice in school climate, with a history of partnerships and initiatives designed to connect research to on-the-ground implementation. A recent development noted is NSCC’s collaboration with Unified Classroom and related programs to advance social inclusion and school climate initiatives, reflecting ongoing activity and partnerships in its field.
