The Unconditional Education (UE) model seeks to disrupt the cycle of poor achievement and exclusion by transforming schools into communities where all students are welcomed and can thrive. UE was designed to support educational transformation within low-performing schools. This transformation is aimed at promoting the academic success of historically underserved student groups, based on the belief that whole-school interventions focused on improving outcomes for the most vulnerable students will ultimately benefit all students in the school community. Ken Berrick is founder and CEO of the Seneca Family of Agencies, and is the co-author of the book, Unconditional Care: Relationship-Based, Behavioral Intervention with Vulnerable Children and Families.
