Texas Lions District 2-E2 Lions Quest of Texas Empowering Youth With Social & Emotional Skills for Success

Lions Quest of Texas

Lions Quest Texas is a social and emotional learning (SEL) program that equips students, educators, and families with the skills to build positive relationships, make healthy decisions, and contribute to safe and respectful communities. Supported by Lions Clubs across Texas, this evidence-based program is making a lasting impact in classrooms and communities alike.

Lions Quest is one of the most widely used SEL programs in the world, and here in Texas, Lions Quest Texas provides educator training, resources, and ongoing support to schools implementing the program. It helps students in grades PreK–12 develop essential life skills that improve academic performance, behavior, and emotional well-being.
