This visual tool from SEL Dallas empowers youth to choose how they want to be greeted each day—whether with a wave, peace sign, fist bump, handshake, or in the language of their choice. Originally created to support safe, welcoming environments, this resource fosters autonomy, respect, and connection right from the start. It’s a simple, powerful way to build community and honor individual preferences in classrooms and youth programs.
