It has been edited to include Alaska-style suggestions and practices that help kids build assets at home, at school and in the community. These assets are grouped into eight main categories: (1) support; (2) empowerment; (3) boundaries and expectations; (4) constructive use of time; (5) commitment to learning; (6) positive values; (7) social skills; and (8) positive identity.
