What Is Community First?

What are Developmental Assets®?

Developmental assets are the strengths, opportunities, skills and self perceptions that kids need to grow up safely and successfully into adulthood. The Search Institute in Minnesota researched and developed 40 assets that promote the positive developmental of all children K-12.

Research consistently shows that young people who possess more of these assets are more likely to make healthy choices and avoid high risk behaviors.

How does Community First provide asset development for Hudson's Youth?

Community First provides asset education, training and programming which addresses the healthy development of youth. Community First partners with individuals, organizations and the schools to provide opportunities that make our community a place where young people thrive.
