Positive Youth Development

Thursday, September 9, 2010

9:00 am - 12:30 pm

One evidence-based approach to reduce youth violence is positive youth development. This approach emphasizes fully preparing young people to succeed and contribute now and as adults, both building and sustaining youth’s ability to make choices that will positively impact their future—resulting in a reduction of risky or violent behavior. This workshop will provide concrete strategies and specific tools for creating cultures that promote positive youth development, whether in classrooms, after-school settings, or youth programs.
