Our Approach

YOUTH DRIVEN SPACES

OUR YOUTH DRIVEN SPACES APPROACH

Historically, adults struggle to find effective strategies to support meaningful opportunities for youth to lead their own initiatives or learning.   We have drawn on our more than 20 year experience to develop a “youth-driven” philosophy that rests on three core practices:

1)  Tapping teens’ intrinsic motivation

2)  Supporting teens’ developmental needs; and

3)  Fostering genuine partnerships between adults and youth.
