"Youth mentoring is among the most popular forms of volunteering in the world. Yet, for too long, we have failed to establish whether our efforts were helping young people to succeed. In Older and Wiser, mentoring expert Jean Rhodes draws on more than thirty years of empirical research to survey the state of the field. Her conclusions are sobering: there is little evidence that most programs-even those of the most renowned and trusted organizations-are truly effective. But there is much reason for hope. Rhodes shows that targeted, evidence-based approaches can create meaningful changes in teenagers' lives. She also recommends that we invest more to support and expand opportunities for natural mentoring relationships to bloom-in schools, youth sports leagues, and community organizations"-- Provided by publisher
