Developmental Assets and Asset-Building Communities examines the
relationships of developmental assets to other approaches and
bodies of work. It raises challenges about the asset-building
approach and offers recommendations for how this approach can be
strengthened and broadened in impact and research. In doing so,
this book extends the scholarly base for the understanding of the
character and scope of the systemic relation between young people's
healthy development and the nature of developmentally attentive
communities. The chapters in this volume present evidence that
asset-building communities both promote and are promoted by
positive youth development, a bi-directional, systemic linkage that
- consistent with developmental systems theory - further civil
society by building relationship and intergenerational places
within a community that are united in attending to the
developmental needs of children and adolescents.
