A toolkit of interventions to assist young people to negotiate transitional pathways
This report focuses not just on those interventions which are designed around drug use and prevention, but also considers the broad spectrum of interventions which address risk and protective factors for a range of negative life course outcomes for young people.
The report organises programs within three categories:
- projects with a major focus on learning or skill development such as school-based drug education or policing programs, parenting programs and programs focusing on young people at risk of early school leaving;
- participation programs which include a focus on mentoring programs, sport, arts, leisure and wilderness activities; and
- direct service and treatment programs which focus on multi-modal treatment and rehabilitation programs for those with a high level of need.
This publication will be a useful resource for policy makers, training organisations and for those who work with young people, to assist in setting up and/or evaluating programs that are most likely to have a positive effect on young people.
