This project will study the civic and community engagement of youth in organizations with high levels of youth participation in decision-making, but that also involve adults in their structures. The study attempts to understand the quality of the relationships between adults and young people in these organizations, and how they affect both groups. In addition, we want to analyze how participation and youth-adult partnerships (Y-APs) impact young people and adults’ empowerment, social trust levels, and social support.
