Organization Description Dr. Stephanie M. Jones and staff have developed, implemented, and evaluated a two-generation program that supports low-income children’s academic and social-emotional development while simultaneously building skills and social capital among their parents. Working in two South Bronx schools, the project extends an intervention that targets self-regulation and executive function skills in PreK-3rd grade classrooms (SECURe: Social, Emotional, and Cognitive Understanding and Regulation in education), and launched an aligned set of parent-focused strategies that build knowledge, skills, and social support among parents.
