Search Institute and the National Collaboration
for Youth Conducts National Survey of Youth
Workers
The purpose of the survey is to promote
understanding and lessons learned in working
with young people. The results of the online
survey will indicate opportunities and
challenges youth workers face as bridges
are built between secular and faith-based
youth workers. Lend
your opinions in the important survey.

National Study Reports Parental Inattention
Key to Teen Decision Making
The sixth annual Teens
Today report from
Students Against Destructive Decisions
(SADD) and Liberty Mutual reveals that
high school teens whose parents pay the
least attention to significant transition
periods (45 percent), such as puberty,
school change, and key birthdays, are more
likely than teens whose parents pay the
most attention (18 percent) to engage in
high-risk behaviors.
Contact SADD for copies of the report, 877-SADD-INC,
or for more information, visit www.sadd.org or www.libertymutualinsurancecompany.com.
