Strengthening School Connectedness to Increase Student Success
Category: Student Well-Being
Instrument Overview
The Well-being Indicator Tool for Youth (WIT-Y) was designed for youth aged 15-21 years who currently are in or in the past have had contact with the child welfare system. The WIT-Y consists of three components: The WIT-Y assessment, an online tool that youth can complete to explore their well-being across eight domains as you can see in the wheel to the left. The WIT-Y Snapshot, which gives youth a picture of their well-being based on the assessment they completed. The WIT-Y Blueprint, a planning document for youth to use after looking at their WIT-Y Snapshot. The Blueprint helps youth take steps to increase their well-being in a particular area. The Sample WIT-Y Blueprint shows what a completed Blueprint looks like. To complete your own Blueprint, download the WIT-Y Blueprint.
