community youth development
Definition
- Community youth development is an emerging framework that involves a shift away from concentrating on problems, instead concentrating on strengths, competencies, and engagement in self-development and community development. Youth development is a process that occurs as youth interact with all levels of their ecology and the systems within those levels, including the other people in their environment, such as family, peers, other adults, and members of their communities.
