Wings for kids is an education program that teaches kids how to manage their emotions, make good decisions and build healthy relationships. The organization does this by advocating for the importance of social and emotional education, helping adults teach these skills, delivering a program model directly to elementary school kids living in poverty, and through a network of national partners, such as Discovery Education, Boys and Girls clubs, and school districts.
