Crosswalk: Youth Thrive & Healing Centered Engagement
Soto-Aponte, Myra
Center for the Study of Social Policy
Youth Thrive believes that all young people should be valued, loved, and supported to reach their goals. To achieve this, Youth Thrive works with youth-serving systems and its partners to change policies, programs, and practices so that they build on what we know about adolescent development, value young people's perspectives, and give youth opportunities to succeed. Youth Thrive is both a research-informed framework on youth well-being and an action-oriented Initiative, based on the framework, that is designed to better support healthy development and promote well-being for youth. The framework identifies five Protective and Promotive Factors--Youth Resilience, Social Connections, Knowledge of Adolescent Development, Concrete Support in Times of Need, and Cognitive and Social-Emotional Competence--that mitigate risk and promote thriving. In exploring interventions that are supportive of building the Protective and Promotive Factors, healing centered engagement was identified as a holistic approach that aligns with and operationalizes the tenets of Youth Thrive. This resource is for those who work with and support young people and are interested in exploring how to apply healing centered engagement and build the Protective and Promotive Factors with young people to help them heal and thrive. This resource draws upon and applies Dr. Shawn Ginwright's concept of healing centered engagement to youth serving systems.
