Today's society requires students to navigate many challenging situations that require certain social emotional learning skills. Previous research suggests that skills like resilience can be built or developed (Daniel & Wassell, 2002; Masten, 2014; Ngo, 2019). Resilience and sense of belonging are factors that impact climate at after-school program locations. The purpose of this research study was to investigate the impact of the Love in a Big World social emotional learning curriculum implemented at multiple Christian Kids Ministry faith-based after-school program locations. In particular, the researchers aimed to determine the impact of the curriculum on student resilience and sense of belonging. Additionally, the researchers aimed to discover staff perceptions of the impact of the curriculum on the climate at the after-school program locations. The researchers were also interested in staff and student perceptions of the impact of the curriculum on student resilience and sense of belonging. Participants were staff members from the CKM program who taught the LIBW curriculum and students who attended the CKM after-school programs at multiple locations and were exposed to LIBW curriculum during the 2023-2024 school year. The researchers collected data using staff questionnaires and interviews related to student resilience, sense of belonging, and climate at the after-school program locations. Additionally, the researchers analyzed matched data from student participants as measured by the CD RISC-10 and the Psychological Sense of School Membership (PSSM). Then, the researchers conducted student focus groups. The findings suggested that there was a statistically significant difference in student resilience scores from the fall to the spring and no statistically significant difference in student sense of belonging from the fall to the spring. Staff member perceptions of the LIBW curriculum were overall positive but some felt there were opportunities for improvement in implementation. Staff and students saw value in the curriculum and the skills gained from using the curriculum at their after-school program locations throughout the school year. Researchers made recommendations for practice and future research. [The dissertation citations contained here are published with the permission of ProQuest LLC.
