<p><b>New page</b></p><div>==What do youth need to succeed?==<br />
<br />
* How do we maintain the ladder – how do we get into the high numbers?<br />
* How to avoid first three rungs?<br />
* Making decisions before doing something, with young people at the table<br />
* Trust is important.<br />
* Adults dismissive of youth abilities and what they can actually handle<br />
* Trust in accepting youth ideas<br />
* Adults be on board with what the youth are trying to do<br />
* Being opened minded – adults have one way to do things, youth have another, reach a compromise<br />
* Open to new ideas, even if it’s something you’ve done for a long time<br />
* More adult allies not looking down upon us but actually helping us<br />
* Be on the same level with your students<br />
* Embracing errors and mistakes, don’t be afraid to be able to adapt even if you have a “plan”, maintain a positive atmosphere.<br />
* Dealing with adversity when it arises – being mindful for your mindset <br />
* Taking risks could be a good thing and adults should be open to it<br />
* Not generalizing youth people – not all young people are the same – one young person’s idea is not every young person’s idea<br />
* Youth have to get just as much out of it as the adults do. Can’t just teach youth so that adults get the prestige <br />
* Level the playing field between boss and employee<br />
* Youth aren’t adults yet – don’t handle stress well – adults shouldn’t put too much pressure because they’re not fully mature yet<br />
* Youth need to be able to think positively about themselves. Realizing that you’re important too. <br />
* Older doesn’t mean wiser. Younger doesn’t mean dumber.<br />
* Sharing ideas, space for that to happen.<br />
* Finding out what young people want out of their communities <br />
* Constantly building leaders. <br />
* Recruiting a recruiter<br />
* Using other youth to connect with other youth – don’t let adults figure what is cool, have youth figure it out<br />
* Using social media to get out to youth - holding events that aren’t just work but a chance to have young people check it out. Opportunity to<br />
* If you want to keep youth engaged, don’t assume you know how to keep youth engaged<br />
* Don’t just study or watch youth – talk to youth <br />
* Don’t just use one youth for the source of your input – use a diverse group <br />
* People like different things <br />
* Adults don’t have cliques like kids do – <br />
* It’s hard to give real feedback unless anonymous – <br />
* If don’t feel uncomfortable by the feedback, it’s not 100% honest and open<br />
* But don’t feel too much pressure to make EVERYONE completely happy with every decision<br />
* Don’t look really desperate for youth<br />
* Don’t be cheap on the food<br />
* Not too close to when school gets out – it’s stressful<br />
* No Friday meetings! Adults think “if I can handle this, they can”<br />
* At the same time – adults are trying to teach us to be responsible<br />
* Get a gauge on their other responsibilities and priorities<br />
* Youth are dealing with so much – becoming an adult, school, etc. Be aware<br />
* Youth are figuring out the world – help them out <br />
* Don’t need to be babysat – need hand holding on some big adult things (taxes, money, etc)<br />
* Agreements – not rules – collaborate on making the agreements <br />
* Build teams – don’t pit youth against one another <br />
* Believe in your youth once they show you what they are capable of. <br />
* Connect and check in with youth, show that you really believe in them <br />
* Leaders teaching others to be leaders <br />
* Start a group text with all your youth (!) <br />
* Some people show their care and affection in different ways <br />
* Don’t people on the spot in front of all their peers <br />
* Be up front about boundaries</div>Josh
