Our Philosophy

The name Children First is a bit deceiving because Children First is really about changing the behavior of adults. We need everyone on the team and using the positive lens of the 40 Developmental Assets to help raise our youth. In St. Louis Park we focus on the assets which outline the relationships, experiences and expectations young people need to thrive.
