Abstract | Positive youth development (PYD) is a strengths-based approach used by programs to support the development of young people's skills, nurture their interests and values, seek and incorporate their input, and connect them to positive adults and useful resources. PYD and racial equity practices are complementary, and a focus on racial equity is critical to strengthening programs that implement a PYD approach. The primary purpose of this brief is to explain how programs that use a PYD approach (PYD programs) can embed a racial equity perspective so that they can more effectively engage with, support, and meet the needs of youth and young adults of color whom they serve. To do so, it begins by defining the terms "positive youth development" and "racial equity lens." Next, it provides a set of principles to guide all PYD programs, regardless of their setting, in embedding a racial equity perspective in their practices. Finally, as an example of a new setting for using PYD, this brief provides information about the Annie E. Casey Foundation's Generation Work initiative, a workforce training model for young adults, and highlights some ways in which Generation Work is embedding a racial equity perspective in its practices.
