Youth Development Program · Eight Sessions

A structured program organizations can facilitate and measure.

The Standard Youth Development Program is designed for a small group of young men. Each discussion-based session runs 45 to 60 minutes and is facilitated by approved host-organization staff, so the capability remains with the organization after the eight weeks end.

The Partner Provides

A group, a room, and the people who already know the young men.

  • A small group of young men and an approved staff facilitator
  • The organization's normal youth-safety and permission procedures
  • The discipline, attendance, and course data the organization already keeps

The Partner Receives

A complete structure for facilitation, reflection, and honest review.

  • Facilitator guide and eight participant worksheets
  • Pre- and post-program participant pulse
  • Implementation support
  • A written summary of the group's results, favorable or not

What We Aim to Move

Use existing records to see whether the moment is changing.

The comparison is the term before the program against the term during and, where available, the term after.

  • Office discipline referrals
  • Out-of-school suspension days
  • Alternative placement referrals
  • Unexcused absences
  • Course failures
  • Participant pulse before and after the program

Evidence With Integrity

The research supports the conditions this program targets.
