A Rationale For Enhancing The Role Of The Non-School Voluntary Sector In Youth Development (Paper In Progress), Karen Pittman, Marlene Wright, Geeta Tate

National Youth Leadership Symposium Monographs

Growing awareness of the seriousness of youth problems in this country (e.g., substance abuse, delinquency, early pregnancy, early school leaving) and of the magnitude of these problems compared to those experienced by youth in other countries has led policymakers, practitioners, and the general public to agree with the above statement. We, as a society, are not offering something to our young people that we should be. The questions that need to be answered are obvious: What are we doing wrong? How did it happen? How do we change the situation? In the spirit of this concern, we explore in this …

We As Professionals Want The Best For The Future Generation, Jacquelyn Gilbert

National Youth Leadership Symposium Monographs

Christine has pointed out what we need in order to make our youth responsible and productive. Based on this information. our youth are in trouble when it comes to their out-of-school activities. Although the data varies according to race, sex. and socioeconomic status. it is still everyone's problem. There are not enough structured activities for the adolescent. I heard her say it is not only important that we provide educational and productive activities for our youth, but that we carefully plan such activities so the adolescent is able to grow. We have a responsibility to assist them in any way …

1992 Uni Youth Leadership Symposium Paper Response, Judy Isaacson

National Youth Leadership Symposium Monographs

Let me assure you there is a multitude of information and food for thought in this paper. I could have taken many routes in my response. Yes. we do need a common definition of youth development. Yes, we do need theory and a basis of knowledge about youth development - meeting the needs of youth and development of competencies. And yes, we do need good outcome evaluation. All of these are addressed well in this paper. However, I kept coming back to the statements regarding national youth organizations - the big 20, if you will. Since I represent one of …

Building Youth Serving Programs On Purpose For Iowa's Children, Susan J. Koch

National Youth Leadership Symposium Monographs

As I reviewed the contents of Skip's paper, and again as I listened today to his thoughtful presentation, there were two initial and rather personal thoughts which came to my mind. One thought is how much I appreciate the services which I and my family receive from Youth Serving Organizations here in the Waterloo/Cedar Falls area. All of my children have been involved with Boy and Girl Scouting organizations, recreation programs, and community services. I personally benefit from our beautiful Black Hawk County YMCA almost every day, as that is my workout home. Tom Davis mentioned enabling factors today, as …

Analysis And Recommendations, Robert F. Long

National Youth Leadership Symposium Monographs

The Institute for Youth Leaders' 1992 National Youth Leadership Symposium contributed to the emerging youth development profession and attending academic discipline through a formal examination of the principles of moving " theory into practice." This theme was selected as the next step in a logical sequence of symposia themes. In 1990 the gathering established agreement on the critical competencies needed in youth development professional practice. The 1991 experience built on the set of competencies with the identification of common ground for professional development among the organizations serving the needs of youth. With agreement on the needed competencies and the common …

Professional Development For Youth Workers (Keynote Address), Frank L. Esser

National Youth Leadership Symposium Monographs

I want to begin this presentation by telling you that I hopefully speak to you tonight as more than the Executive Director of a local nationally affiliated youth agency. My intent is to address you on behalf of my colleagues from all youth serving agencies, and in a way that will reflect the unified commitment and concern we share regarding the Professional Development of our field.

During the first Youth Leadership Symposium Judith Carter, Director of Career Development with Boys and Girls Clubs of America, challenged us very directly with a very realistic picture of the situation of our youth …

Professional Development For Youth Leaders: "National Problems: Local Solutions" (R.J. Mcelroy Lecture), Christine L. Kwak

National Youth Leadership Symposium Monographs

When you are preaching to the choir, you know that you are dealing with people who already care. I suspect that much of what you will hear from me today will be things you already know. But as Mary Montie Bacon, a brilliant educator from the California peer helping movement says, "there's some things even the choir needs to hear. That no matter how good we are, how committed we are, even the choir needs to rehearse the tunes, to come together every once in a while to re-inspire one another ....... to re-commit to some of the principles we …

Analysis And Recommendations, Robert F. Long

National Youth Leadership Symposium Monographs

The 1991 National Youth Leadership Symposium moved the study of the youth serving organization profession toward better understandings of the developmental needs of its professional staff. The theme, "Common Ground for Professional Development", was used to focus the examination on educational needs that would be useful to all those engaged in the work of these organizations. Building on the agreement about needed professional competencies developed at the 1990 Symposium, the 1991 gathering moved on to improve understanding of how to better prepare for youth leadership roles. These are important activities to foster awareness, responsiveness, and advocacy to the youth leadership …

National Youth Leadership Symposium Monographs

"What are the major problems facing youth and what can be done to better prepare youth organizations to address these challenges?" are the topics of a discussion roundtable of a diverse group of community leaders. They addressed specific points of concern to the youth development professionals, including the major problems facing youth, the professional development training needs, and the training needs that might be addressed because of limited financial resources. The roundtable group set the stage for the Symposium discussions that took place the following day. The many and variety perspectives the group brought to the issues in question provided …

What Shaped My Life And Career (Lecture Response), Susan Hanzelka

National Youth Leadership Symposium Monographs

"What shaped my life to make it my desire to work with kids? I'd have to say, my parents and my family inspired me. My childhood was a time of fun, imagination, friends, responsibility, and respect. I see a lack of these components in the lives of children, today, which drives me. Christine Kwak said we need to shift our thinking of youth as problems to youth as resources, or partners. But before we can say that youth are truly our partners, we must include one detrimentally important facet - COMMUNICATION with our youth!

Analysis And Recommendations, Robert F. Long

National Youth Leadership Symposium Monographs

The 1990 National Youth Leadership Symposium was a strong first step for the University of Northern Iowa's program to lead the examination of important content issues for youth serving organizations. The inaugural symposium has set traditions for an annual event while initiating a research and reporting sequence in support of the youth leadership profession. These are exciting new activities to enhance an often overlooked but important field of endeavor. One of the key challenges and targeted purposes of the annual Symposium is to foster awareness, responsiveness, and advocacy to the youth leadership profession.

Youth Development - Community Collaboration, Mary Ann Burk

National Youth Leadership Symposium Monographs

The shut down of federal programs in early October because of the inability of Congress, and the President to establish spending priorities was just another reminder that the financing of society's needs now and in the future is going to take planning and collaboration. To take a narrow "just me" approach will mean a "shut down" of programs for all. Youth development programs are no different. Limited resources and difficult issues are forcing agencies to move from an "isolationist" point of view to increasing cooperative efforts.
