The Strengths Movement for youth is an educational and parenting movement that seeks to provide a new paradigm for the ways we educate and raise children.

The core principles of the movement are the following:
• Every child has a unique combination of strengths and when those strengths are nurtured, engaged and challenged, young people have the greatest opportunity to find success and happiness.
• Happiness and personal fulfillment are the result of meaningful work and meaningful relationships. The quickest path to this is a focus on strengths rather than human deficits and weaknesses.
• When teaching and learning is customized for the learner, higher quality work will result than when the environment is standardized.
• When young people are encouraged to work discover and work within their areas of strengths, they are most likely to develop talent.
