This is the work of the Search Institute.

I have used this with my students since it began in Inner city Boston to Flint Michigan.

When used as a tool for identification and then understanding and then implementation for an Individualized Learning Plan - it can indeed transform the person and the entire school.

In 1990, Search Institute released a framework of 40 Developmental Assets, which identifies a set of skills, experiences, relationships, and behaviors that enable young people to develop into successful and contributing adults.

Over the following two decades, the Developmental Assets framework and approach to youth development became the most frequently cited and widely utilized in the world, creating what Stanford University’s William Damon described as a “sea change” in adolescent development.

I present to you for your Education, Evaluation and Elucidation this brilliant resource.
