This book presents case studies of 38 recreation programs that are serving the diverse needs of at-risk youth in small and large communities. Detail is provided that will enable communities facing the challenge of ameliorating potential problems created by at-risk youth to initiate or improve their work with this difficult target population. Information is provided on approaches that public agencies are using to collaborate with voluntary sector agencies and the business community, as well as methods being used to involve youth and other stake-holders in program planning. Background information for each program is provided, together with program descriptions, collaborative arrangements, financing, marketing and staffing arrangements, and, where available, evidence of program effectiveness and outcomes. This book is a must for recreation program planners and administrators in every community striving to develop and improve their services for youth in high-risk environments.
