The Asset Builders Alliance is a coalition
of local youth serving agencies, founded by the YMCA of Greater Cincinnati, the
Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Cincinnati, the Boy Scouts Dan Beard Council,
and the Girl Scouts
of Western Ohio, and funded by the United Way of Greater Cincinnati. Our mission
is to mobilize and engage the Greater Cincinnati community around the developmental
asset research, and to promote a shift from reacting to children and youth with
problems to engaging and developing youth such that they thrive. The
Alliance has just released regional findings of the Search Institute's Attitudes
and Behaviors (Assets) survey of more than 6,000 youth in Greater Cincinnati and
Northern Kentucky. Details
What this survey suggests is the need to build our capacity
to be communities in which caring, connectedness, and a shared purpose are commonplace.
One person truly can make a difference. To learn more about what you can do, please
