How Can Adults Help Youth Thrive?
Wednesday, January 13, 2016

That’s why America’s Promise has partnered with The Thrive Foundation to create a new online learning channel dedicated solely to information on thriving. The Thriving Learning Channel will serve as a hub of resources, from blogs to academic research, on how caring adults can help youth thrive.
While thriving may look different for each individual, young people who thrive tend to have a few things in common, such as:
- Resilience, or a growth mindset
- Purpose
- Out-of-school programs
- Caring adults
If you have ideas or knowledge about how to help more young people thrive, let us know by suggesting new research, resources and blogs for the Thrive Learning Channel.
And if you’re curious to know if you’re thriving, the Thrive Foundation suggests that you ask yourself these questions:
- Have you found your place in the world?
- Do you have the opportunity and support to express your individual talents?
- Do you feel like your work and life make a difference?
If you answered yes, get some tips from the Thriving Learning Channel and help someone else thrive!
