OUR METHOD

THE MARIPOSA METHOD IS A PROVEN, SCIENCE-BACKED APPROACH TO SEL

  • Our method is based on 25+ years of research and professional experience.
  • Our programs meet all nine Harvard criteria for effective SEL training. 
  • We've tracked results based on the 34,000 adults who have adopted our method and the 100,000+ children they support.
  • We continue to improve and adapt our method based on our experience and the latest in psychological research.

AT THE CORE OF OUR METHOD ARE 5 KEY SKILLS WHICH WORK TOGETHER AS A SYSTEM TO BUILD SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL COMPETENCE.

Our learning programs are designed by expert instructional designers and draw on the latest in adult learning theory.

WE USE SIMPLE, PRACTICAL LEARNING TOOLS.

  • Our learning system is rooted in a compassionate understanding of how humans learn effectively.
  • We break down big concepts and lifestyle shifts into easily digestible sections and skills.
  • We demonstrate our techniques using relatable, real-life examples.

Building social- emotional resilience requires more than a single workshop and cannot be done alone.

It's a process that requires teamwork and compassion. We recognize that caregivers, educators, and communities need to establish common ground and community support as they unlearn outdated, unproductive ways of understanding children. Our method helps adults work together, reduce stress, and learn how to connect with children in ways that foster emotional resilience for generations to come.
