Positive character traits are the foundation of the Alliance for Healthy Youth:
Respect
is how we feel about the brilliance and resilience of youth who participate in our programs.
Responsibility
is taken to provide effective practices in our youth development programs that emphasize risk avoidance and the development of healthy behaviors.
Self-Control
enables youth in prevention-led programs, Staff, and Board to achieve our short-term goal (programs) and long-term goal (sustainability).
Honesty
helps youth meet their goals by giving them facts about the outcomes of positive behaviors and risk activities with accuracy and caring.
Courage
powers youth who make healthy choices no matter the pressure to do otherwise as it powers the mission of the Alliance for Healthy Youth.
