This book is aimed at leaders and managers of youth work and services that provide opportunities for personal and social development to young people. It was written at a time when concern about young people's education, health, welfare and place in society was central to much policy-making, when young people had better prospects than ever before, while at the same time facing new risks and challenges that made the transition to adult life particularly hazardous for many.
