The primary activity of Youth Passageways YPW is to increase broad public awareness educate the public about the importance of initiatory experiences for young people and increase access to initiatory experiences for young people through the development and dissemination of internet-based resources. YPW creates and disseminates resources on youth development rites of passage and related topics for youth workers educators social workers parents and the broad public. These resources include content rich biweekly blog posts a regular newsletter and we will soon add an online journal. These resources are freely available to any and all interested parties with the express purpose of creating broader public awareness of and access to initiatory experiences for young people. We will increasingly work to make resources relevant to young people themselves. Additionally YPW has created and is now actively maintaining and growing a user friendly searchable website of initiatory experiences for young people. This database offers youth parents and others a central database of rite of passage experiences increasing access to a broad range of offerings. This website also houses general introductory information about rites of passage as well as an extensive list of resources. Additionally Youth Passageways is beginning to provide several publicly available online tools including features on our website a google group and Facebook group that allow our partners and the interested broad public to share resources with one another. All of these tools make these approaches to youth and community development work more visible and accessible to more people. They also build relationships and foster collaboration among leaders in this emergent field and this will also increase information and resources available to a wider public. Increasingly these tools will allow parents youth and a broad range of youth workers to access resources specific to their needs or unique situation. These activities are and will be funded through individual donations membership fees and foundation grants. They are accomplished by staff [as of now contractors as well as volunteers]GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2023 – Dec 31, 2023Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$280K
