This work was supported by the Neil and Louise Tillotson Fund of the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation. Building Knowledge for Families and Communities Research across diverse settings has provided strong evidence that participation in structured activities benefits adolescents. Greater participation in structured activities like student government, sports teams, and service clubs has been linked to better grades, higher expectations for the future, greater school attachment, and lower rates of substance use and delinquency across the high school years. Results from the Coös Youth Study show that these findings hold in this rural context.1 Findings have also emerged from our study in terms of differences between male and female students’ participation in structured out-of-school activities. In this fact sheet, we draw from surveys administered to a cohort of 416 participants in 7th grade in 2008, again when they were in 8th grade in 2009, and most recently as 10th graders in 2011 to look at patterns of participation in structured activities over time and whether male and female students differ in these patterns of participation. Second, we draw from questions added to the 2011 survey of 10th graders to examine Coös County youths’ perceptions about what kinds of barriers have kept them from getting more involved in structured out-of-school activities.
