YMCA of the USA
ASSET BUILDING AND ADULT ENGAGEMENT
User’s Guide: Pilot Version
“We build strong kids, strong families, strong communities."
This kit, designed for YMCAs, can help you maximize your positive influence on kids,
families, and your community.
The kit consists of 10 simple sets of materials, including
- Posters
- Take-away cards
- Handouts
The kit also includes a user-friendly training design and “discussion starters” to get staff
members thinking about how they can engage other adults in young people’s lives.
All you have to do to make use of the print materials is
- print and post the posters;
- copy the handouts and take-away cards;
- make the cards and handouts available to members; and
- be ready to answer questions or direct people to the printed materials.
What you get is
- an easy way to build relationships with all adults involved in your YMCA,
- a chance to make a difference for kids and families, and
- no added job stress!
