The Search Institute
The Search Institute is an organization that was founded “to provide leadership, knowledge, and resources to promote healthy children, youth, and communities.” Its work centers on the framework of “40 Developmental Assets,” which are positive experiences and personal qualities that young people need to grow up healthy, caring, and responsible. The ASF initiative fosters all 40 of these assets.
