Description

Carol E. Marcus & John D. Swisher (eds.). Focuses on programs which help youth in high-risk neighborhoods learn to say “no” to drugs. Covers 18 grants & the programs that were created with those grants. Includes characteristics of youths (juvenile delinquents, athletes of low socioeconomic status), offers insight into how to develop model programs for youth (lack of data, lack of effective mgmt. techniques), problems faced in implementing demonstration grant programs (lack of resources, resistance to training), & reports on successful programs (retreats, awareness training).
