In recent years increasing attention has been paid to issues of
social exclusion and the problematic transition from youthful
dependence to adult independence. Often this has had severe
consequences, ranging from under achievement and disruptive
behaviour in school, through the misuse of alcohol and drugs, to
serious or persistent offending. Seeking to address these issues
has become a major focus of public policy and a variety of forms of
intervention with disaffected youth have been set up. One of the
most talked about forms of intervention with disaffected youth has
been 'mentoring'. This book, based on a large-scale research study,
examines the lives of a large group of 'disaffected' young people,
and considers the impact that involvement in a mentoring programme
had on them. In doing so it fills a large gap, providing empirical
evidence on the effectiveness of mentoring programmes, providing at
the same time a vivid insight into the nature of such disaffection,
the realities of contemporary social exclusion among young people
and the experience and outcome of mentoring.
