BACKGROUND
Latinx persons are America's largest and fastest-growing ethnic minority, however they are at risk for poor academic and health outcomes. The challenges presented by urbanization are best addressed by collaborative community partnerships.
OBJECTIVES
Share implementation and preliminary results of a partnership-driven program for positive youth development of at-risk youth.
METHODS
The YES! Sí Se Puede project aimed to reduce academic and health disparities among Latinx youth through a university-middle school-community organization alliance. A sample of 134 middle school students (across three cohorts) from southern California participated in a youth development intervention across 1 year (2010-2013). Data were collected at baseline, post-program, and 6-month follow-up.
RESULTS
Computer knowledge (P = 0.006), academic self-esteem (P = 0.010), and friend social support for physical activity (P = 0.002) significantly increased.
CONCLUSIONS
Although data show partial success, the long-term investment of attention and quality programming for underserved youth and families will likely provide benefits for years to come.
背景
拉丁裔是美国最大且增长最快的少数族裔，然而他们面临学业和健康状况不佳的风险。城市化带来的挑战最好通过社区合作伙伴关系来解决。
目标
分享一个由伙伴关系驱动的项目的实施情况和初步成果，该项目旨在促进高危青少年的积极成长。
方法
“是的！我们能行”项目旨在通过大学-中学-社区组织联盟减少拉丁裔青少年在学业和健康方面的差距。来自南加州的134名中学生（分三个队列）参与了为期1年（2010 - 2013年）的青少年发展干预项目。在基线、项目结束后以及6个月随访时收集数据。
结果
计算机知识（P = 0.006）、学业自尊（P = 0.010）以及朋友对体育活动的社会支持（P = 0.002）显著增加。
结论
尽管数据显示取得了部分成功，但对服务不足的青少年和家庭进行长期关注和高质量项目投入可能会在未来数年带来益处。
