Professional Development for Youth Workers: New Directions for Youth Development, No. 104 |
| J-B MHS Single Issue Mental Health Services |
| Editor: Pam Garza; Editor: Lynne M. Borden; Editor: Kirk A. Astroth |
| Professional development of caring, capable adults who interact with and on behalf of youth is a key issue for youth organizations and agencies committed to creating environments that nurture young people’s growth and transition into adulthood. This issue offers a glimpse of some of the innovated, sustained, and coordinated efforts to advance the preparation and support of youth workers based on the principles of positive youth development. Contributors provide examples demonstrating how to support youth work interaction as well as training networks that take common approaches to professional development and outline some of the significant challenges faced in youth worker professional development and their solutions. From defining competencies for entry-level youth workers to case studies that explore the role of colleges and universities in professionalizing the field, this issue serves as a record of the evolution of the youth development field and a call for its continued progress in building a comprehensive system that can meet the needs of both youth workers and the young people they come into contact with each day. This is the 104th volume of the quarterly report series New Directions for Youth Development.
