许多青年服务组织正在让年轻人参与青年组织和/或干预措施，以支持特定的身份发展，以满足老年和多元化青年对参与社区公民活动的有意义的机会的需求。在本文中，我们探讨了青年组织、身份支持和传统青年发展组织之间发展成果、支持和机会的差异。调查和定性研究结果表明存在显着差异，特别是在公民行动主义和身份发展等发展成果方面。此外，与研究中的其他机构相比，青年组织机构的特点是青年在青年领导、决策和社区参与方面拥有更高水平的经验。这项研究表明，精心设计的人员配置和决策结构可以影响青年的成果。致谢：本文由公民学习和参与信息与研究中心、福特基金会以及社区和青年发展创新中心共同完成。未经作者许可，请勿转载。
Many youth-serving organizations are engaging young people in youth organizing and/or in interventions to support specific identity development in response to a need for meaningful opportunities for older and diverse youth to be civically involved in their communities. In this paper, we explore differences in developmental outcomes and supports and opportunities among youth organizing, identity-support, and traditional youth development organizations. Survey and qualitative findings suggest significant differences, particularly in developmental outcomes such as civic activism and identity development. In addition, the youth organizing agencies are characterized by youth’s experience of higher levels of youth leadership, decision making, and community involvement in comparison with other agencies in the study. This research suggests that deliberate approaches to staffing and decision-making structures can influence youth outcomes.
