Abstract
Survey research methods were utilized to study The Youth Development Organization Needs of Students in Choluteca, Honduras. Research of current trends in Honduran culture and articles of youth development practices revealed a considerable need for this type of study. The study was powered by the problem that youth development program involvement of young people in Choluteca, Honduras had not been observed and measured. No previous study had been found to address all areas regarding Honduran youth needs which this study sought to explore; therefore, the researcher developed a student questionnaire designed to match research questions to objectives to be accomplished in the study. The Youth Development Organization Needs of Students in Choluteca, Honduras Student Questionnaire incorporated five sections of collected data. Study participants responded to questions regarding demographic data, activity interests in and outside of school, club activity involvement, programming questions, and ranked importance of selected interest areas. The questionnaire was distributed to students at two participating schools, El Centro Educativo Estados Unidos de America and Instituto Namasigue. Both schools are located close to the city of Choluteca, Honduras. Results of the study have provided usable data to better understand young people’s current trends of interest and activity involvement in youth development programs of the surveyed population.
