Youth voice can not only be cultivated, it can be turned into action and can create change in their lives and communities. Our Youth Empowerment Model walks adults through 4 phases of working with youth to bring their thoughts and ideas to life. We will talk through the 4 phase model, how the Search Institute's Developmental Relationships Framework fits into each phase, some example tools & ideas for bringing each phase to life, and how this model has worked in a wide variety of settings. From individual advocacy and action, to developing community change projects, our Youth Empowerment Framework provides the guardrails to ensure the youths' voices are leading the way.
