What is RAD?

Welcome to RAD!

RAD stands for Recognize, Accept, and Do. It  is a Social Emotional Learning (SEL) program. SEL is the process of understanding yourself and how you interact with the world, including managing emotions and making choices that improve your life.

RAD helps you build SEL skills to focus on what's important to you. It's about learning how to handle challenges and pursue what matters most to you.
