This unique handbook shows how to foster positive development during adolescence, including youth contributions to families and communities in civil society. The material draws on research conducted with various populations including immigrant Hispanic, Chinese, Israeli, and Muslim-American youth.

Drawing on the global research and field-building efforts of SearchInstitute?s Center for Spiritual Development in Childhood andAdolescence, this volume frames a new, deeper dialogue about theintersections between youth development and spiritual development.Contributors explore ways to integrate spiritual development andyouth development in order to strengthen theory, research, andpractice. They ask: How do young people develop their deepest, fundamentalcommitments? How do they find their place in their family, community, world,and universe? How do they come to terms with issues of meaning, purpose, andidentity beyond themselves? These are, at their core, spiritual development questions. Theyare also critical issues in adolescent development. They are thewellspring of some of the best within young people and humanity,and the source of some of the greatest atrocities in society whenthe answers lead to alienation, hatred, or violence. The past decade has seen an explosion in interest in spiritualdevelopment within youth development and related fields. Nationalyouth-serving systems are beginning to ask how they can effectivelyaddress these questions in a society that has become increasinglydiverse and pluralistic. And the growth of positive,community-based youth development provides a platform for examiningthese issues within the context of an overall commitment tohealthy, holistic development among all young people. This volumeis a valuable addition to the field. This is the 118th volume of New Directions for YouthDevelopment, the Jossey-Bass quarterly report series dedicatedto bringing together everyone concerned with helping young people,including scholars, practitioners, and people from differentdisciplines and professions. The result is a unique resourcepresenting thoughtful, multi-faceted approaches to helping ouryouth develop into responsible, stable, well-rounded citizens.

In the prevention science approach, focus is put on identifying risk and protective factors in adolescent risk behaviour. Based on this approach, many research and prevention programs have been generated in the past few decades. Nevertheless, over-emphasis of adolescent developmental problems has been criticised as focusing too much on adolescent developmental problems and pathologies. In response to this criticism, an alternative approach highlighting the importance of positive youth development has been proposed.

Scientific research and science-guided practice based on the promotion of an individual′s strengths constitutes a radical shift in a new and growing area of study within the field of human development. Its trademark term is `positive youth development′. This approach to human development is based on the idea that, in addition to preventing problems, science and practice should promote the development of competencies, skills, and motivation in order to enhance individuals′ developmental pathways. Approaches to Positive Youth Development, is based on this concept and brings together authors from across Europe and America who are leaders in their respective fields. The main focus of the book, beyond a clarification of the paradigmatic foundations, concerns the major contexts of adolescents and young adults, namely, neighbourhoods and leisure locales, school and family, and the major themes of healthy psychosocial development, namely, competences and knowledge, prosocial behaviour, transcending problems of delinquency, civic engagement, identity, agency, and spirituality.

This book addresses a systemic gap in existing studies on human services and youth work. While the notion of spirituality does make rare appearances in such literature, it is often vaguely defined and underdeveloped both as a concept and as a mode of practice. This ambiguity is symptomatic of the broader shift in the sociological context of Western and global societies that has been referred to variously as post-modern, late-modern and post-secular. From the perspective of the relationship between human development and the spiritual/theological, we live in a “time between times”. We have not yet worked out how to speak of “spirit”; nor how to include its meanings in positive youth intervention, and developments in our language for a public spiritual consciousness remain in a state of cultural flux. This book offers a coherent vocabulary and narrative from which to construct a more explicit and deliberate practice of spiritual care, education and professional identity for youth workers. It speaks directly to youth work practitioners, managers of youth services, those providing youth work education, and anyone with an interest in youth and spirituality research and practice.
