what is Youth Development

Youth Development is about being involved with young people. It is also should be informal and educational. It focuses on personal, social, and political awareness. Youth Development exists to improve the lives of young people by meeting their basic needs, physically, developmentally, and socially. 

YDEV Ideology

   After doing the Youth Development Ideology Inventory I learned that I fall into the critical youth development ideology. I believe that youth can make a difference and they have a voice. Youth can have important ideas and can contribute to the world.  Youth and adults works together to develop public role play. I learned that I can make a change for the better with youth. When working with youth I should provide spaces that ask youth what they think.      We did this inventory in  my YDEV class last semester and I kept it. I am in the same ideology as last semester.
