Healthy Youth Alliance

(formerly Boulder County Prevention Connection)

 

BUILDING ON STRENGTHS TO SUPPORT THE HEALTHY DEVELOPMENT OF ALL YOUTH, FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES

"Community building is an ongoing process rather than a task to be completed or a program to be implemented." 

Boulder County Healthy Youth Alliance (HYA) [formerly Boulder County Prevention Connection] was formed in 1991 as a coalition-building initiative.  It promotes the development of healthy communities countywide by:

  • Encouraging Positive Relationship Building between all adults and youth
  • Coaching and facilitation to the Parent Engagement Network (PEN)
  • Promoting 40 "Assets," which are Building Blocks for Healthy Youth Development
  • Supporting collaboration between all sectors of the community on behalf of causing thriving youth
  • Integrating strength-based approaches into existing community systems
  • Ensuring diversity and participation by people of all ages
  • Using Asset Based Community Development methods to encourage everyone in the Community to support these efforts

Boulder County Healthy Youth Alliance offers:

  • Trainings and Coaching in the 40 Developmental Assets
  • Facilitation and Technical Assistance
  • Strength-based Community Building
  • Best Practices Prevention
  • Fundraising expertise and Collaboration
  • Resources and Materials

To schedule a Training, Consultation, or to Volunteer to share your Gifts and Assets, or if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact any of the staff at BC-HYA:
