National Evaluation and Technical Assistance Center for the Education of Children and Youth Who Are Neglected, Delinquent, or At-Risk
Research has demonstrated the positive impact that a high-quality, supportive relationship with an adult can have on the life of a youth who is neglected, delinquent, or at-risk. The Mentoring Toolkit provides a general overview of mentoring research, insight into the special needs of incarcerated youth, and practical strategies for designing mentoring programs to meet those needs.
This brief explores research on mentoring programs for youth currently in or at risk of involvement in the juvenile justice system and offers several ways in which programs have adapted innovative mentoring practices to successfully work with this unique population.
This Innovative Practice Brief offers an indepth look at the Aftercare for Indiana Through Mentoring (AIM) program, which provides statewide mentoring support for delinquent youth.
