  10. PBIS + Positive Youth Development Key elements to the Youth Development approach are the following: • Youth are viewed as a valued and respected asset to society; • Policies and programs focus on the evolving developmental needs and tasks of adolescents, and involve youth as partners rather than clients; • Families, schools and communities are engaged in developing environments that support youth; • Adolescents are involved in activities that enhance their competence, connections, character, confidence and contribution to society; • Adolescents are provided an opportunity to experiment in a safe environment and to develop positive social values and norms; and • Adolescents are engaged in activities that promote self-understanding, self-worth, and a sense of belonging and resiliency.
