Brokenleg is known for the Circle of Courage, an influential model of positive youth development first presented by Brokenleg and Larry Brendtro in 1988.[2] The framework posits that there are four universal needs and values that are essential for young people's growth: belonging, mastery, independence, and generosity.[3] The model has been widely used in educational, treatment, and youth work settings[4][5][6] and received the Albert E. Trieschman award for contribution to the child and youth care literature.
