JYD is an open-source, peer-reviewed, quarterly online publication dedicated to advancing youth development practice and research. JYD serves applied researchers and evaluators as well as practitioners who work in youth-serving organizations or the intermediaries that support them.

"One of the key priorities of NAA is to promote the alignment of research, policy and practice," said Gina Warner, NAA President & CEO. "That's what makes this partnership such a tremendous advancement for our association. JYD is wonderful complement to our Afterschool Today magazine, allowing our community yet another venue to share and learn, while also advancing the work of our profession."
