Mechanisms In Place To Help Youth Move Forward As Young Adults
Build room in your programs for youth to transition towards adulthood. Programs should be provided for different age groups. When youth age out of one program they should be easily bridged into the next. Give youth more rights and responsibilities as they move up from one program into the next. Create volunteer opportunities and internships for older youth. Train older youth and hire them as paid staff. Create closure by way of formal rituals such as: graduations, awards ceremonies or a one-on-one termination session that creates closure for youth and helps them to plan their next steps. For some interesting, out-of-the-box, ideas on rituals and ceremonies you can refer to my book, "Her Rite of Passage: How To Design And Deliver A Rites of Passage Program for African-American Girls and Young Women."
After you have spent some time familiarizing yourself with the 8 key principles of youth development, take a closer look at your organization and see how it measures up in terms of being supportive of the youth development approach. Then, share this information with your supervisor, your colleagues and people you supervise if you are a supervisor. And if your organization is not doing so already, then perhaps together you can make it an agency wide or at least a program wide effort to incorporate the 8 key principles of youth development into the different service areas of your organization.
Unlike their corporate counterparts, nonprofit organizations generally benefit from a substantial commitment to their mission by employees and other stakeholders. For this reason, it can be argued that structured change management is more important for nonprofits because of the level of emotion by those involved in and affected by change.
Fortunately, a number of change management tools exist to assist organization leaders in creating a change management plan. Consultants specializing in change management offer a variety of services, and organizations may also wish to look into change management software for sophisticated changes such as those in the information technology arena.
