Review
"The fourth edition of Youth at Risk continues a tradition of excellence started by Capuzzi, Gross, and their associates over a decade ago. This volume is the most comprehensive and clinically sophisticated book in the area of working with young, at-risk populations."
- Samuel T. Gladding, PhD, ACA President Elect, Professor and Chair, Department of Counseling, Wake Forest University
"Youth at Risk has a strong foundation, based on contemporary research, which reflects the best and brightest the field currently has to offer. It offers vivid and realistic examples that help bring to life our understanding of risk factors and how to temper them."
- Russell A. Sabella, PhD, ASCA President, Counselor Educator, Florida Gulf Coast University
