Young people today, more than ever, need adults who can help them grow into strong
healthy, caring, productive young people. Adults do this by teaching youth positive skills,
attitudes and behaviors called "developmental assets." Just as financial assets allow a
person to weather difficult times and to plan for a positive future, "developmental assets"
provide the emotional resources youth need to avoid problems and to be successful.
Research by the Search Institute (Copyright © 1996 by Search Institute, Minneapolis,
Minnesota; 1-800-888-7828. All rights reserved) has identified 40 assets that are
essential for youth to blossom into productive citizens. The more assets a young person
has, the more likely he or she is to succeed in school, stay healthy, and volunteer in the
community. The fewer assets available to a youth, the more likely he or she is to try
alcohol or drugs, commit a crime, or do poorly in school. Parents, teachers, coaches,
faith communities, business leaders, everyone, can help build assets in our youth. In
fact, we need everyone to work together to create the kind of community where all youth
thrive.
Coaches have a unique and powerful role to play in building assets in young people.
They can be the adults to whom youth turn for advice. They can model responsible,
caring interactions with others. They can motivate youth to achieve new goals. A coach
can make all the difference in the world to a young person...especially a young person
who doesn't have many assets to begin with.
