Youth Voice Tools!
October 25, 2008 - 10:25 PM

What would our world look like if the active, distinct, and concentrated ways young people represent themselves were engaged and honored throughout society?

I am happy to announce a new online resource called the Freechild Project Youth Voice Toolbox. Comprised of a series of one- and two-sheet publications, these tools identify a number of innovative practices, practical considerations and critical concepts that are focused on engaging Youth Voice, particularly among historically disengaged young people. The following tools are available:

* Definitions - Youth Voice Glossary
* Assumptions - Assumptions Behind Youth Voice
* Principles - Principles of Authentic Youth Engagement
* Measure - Measure of Social Change Led By and With Young People
* Ladder - Ladder of Youth Participation
* Keys - Keys to Youth Voice
* Cycle - Cycle of Youth Voice
* Guidelines - Guidelines for Youth Voice
* Honoring - 5 Ways to Honor Youth Voice
* Relationships - Youth/Adult Relationships Spectrum
* Diversity - The Diversity of Youth Voice
* Roles - New Roles for Youth Voice
* Movement - The Youth Voice Movement
* Discrimination - Discrimination Against Youth Voice
* Myths - Myths About Youth Voice
* Assessments - Assessing Youth Voice
* End - The End of Youth Voice
* Summary - Youth Voice Tip Sheet
* Organizations - Youth Voice Organizations
* Publications - Youth Voice Publications
* Links - Youth Voice Links

The Freechild Project has been promoting Youth Voice in nonprofit organizations, schools, foundations and government agencies since it was founded in 2001. Working with a variety of partners across the country, Freechild has learned about Youth Voice from the 1000s of young people and adult allies in our workshops and critical conversations. This Youth Voice Toolkit is a summary of different tools we have developed, as well as a few adaptations of work others have done.
