"This text will be targeted to both active health educators, as well as students and instructors in health education teacher preparation programs. Per the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are roughly 118,500 health educators in the United States, with a 16% increase in jobs projected through 2026. This includes health educators working with audiences outside of K-12, which is the segment of the health education community we are targeting with this publication. On the academic side, the number of health education majors and minors can be difficult to pinpoint, as these are sometimes nested within public health programs. Within these programs, there are unlikely to be courses focused exclusively on SEL, but this would be an appropriate fit for courses focused on the health education curriculum, instruction, and assessment"-- Provided by publisher.
