Virtual Workshop: Building Assets in Every Youth
Developmental Assets
Building Assets in Every Youth workshop will introduce you to ideas on how each of us can contribute to the health and well-being of all our children and youth in Bartholomew County. This workshop will not only provide the principles of the Developmental Assets framework but share practical examples through the lens of educators, out of school time leaders, and local youth advocates.

Detailed information about the factors that contribute to the healthy development of our young people (e.g. Developmental Assets).
How you can be an active player in building these skills, experiences, and opportunities in our community.
Ways to join with our community members to make our county a place where young people thrive.

The secret to helping children and youth grow into happy, healthy, and responsible adults isn't really a secret at all. Simply make a point to connect with young people: Get to know them, talk to them, understand them, help them, and build relationships with them.
Research from the Search Institute identifies 40 Developmental Assets® that have a powerful, positive, positive impact on young people. Children and teenagers who have high levels of these assets get involved in fewer risky behaviors and are much more likely to exhibit the positive values, such has leadership, good health, diversity, and success in school.
