Stacey Montgomery

Author and Social Emotional Learning Innovator

I am passionate about providing kids with tools to help them understand that they matter. I also enjoy connecting with parents, educators, and community leaders and sharing strategies related to teaching kids to value themselves, foster healthy relationships, and contribute to the community.

I am the author of 7 confidence-building guided journals for kids and created social emotional learning programs for schools and youth organizations. I also founded a nonprofit called the My Super Powers! Foundation.

Signature Talks

  • Social Emotional Learning Supports the Mental Health of Children. Social emotional learning can support positive mental health by teaching kids skills and strategies that foster important protective factors that work as buffers against mental health risks.
