Pilot Program goal is to execute the 8-week SEL Curriculum in and around Los Angeles with:

- One or more mental health professionals (therapist, psychiatrist, counselor) with their teenage client in their office or at home visit

HiEQ is an interactive SEL (Social & Emotional Learning) curriculum written so that any mental health professional, mentor, parent or teacher can easily adapt it to any classroom setting with student(s) ages 13-18 . We need our students to be truly successful in all areas of life, internally and externally. With HiEQ's researched SEL exercises and activities, creative arts, journaling and meditation, we can steward our youth down a path of mindfulness, respect, responsibility, generosity and unity. Join us in growing the next generation of creative, empathetic problem solvers and world changers...
Ultimately, you will be empowering youth, and helping students to connect more deeply with themselves, each other and their communities. If this sounds like a good fit for you please contact us for more information.
