- catalog abstract "This book examines what it means to develop as an exemplary young person - that is, a young person who is thriving within the community and on the rise to a hopeful future. The book explores several key characteristics of positive youth development such as competence, character, confidence, social connections, and compassion that coalesce to create a young person who is developing successfully towards an "ideal" adulthood, one marked by contributions to self, others, and the institutions of civil society. Lerner looks closely at how integrated moral and civic identity typically emerges in the adolescent stage of human development, a time when a person's self-definition is undergoing significant changes. The book explores different programs and policies that promote positive youth development, the most successful ones being those that cultivate adult to youth relationships, establish skill-building, and provide the opportunity for youth participation and leadership.".
