Mentoring and befriending for young homeless people: A good practice guide. Published by: Shelter Price: 7.50 18 pages ISBN 1 903595 59 2
This short booklet by Shelter recognises the growth of services of this nature and sets out to bring a service user perspective on best practice. There are useful definitions that help to clarify the differences between mentoring and befriending. The befriending/mentoring spectrum also provides a clear and visual guide to this.
Throughout the booklet, there are quotes from a number of service users and these help to keep the subject matter grounded. The brief descriptions of services and what they can offer are helpful in clarifying the role they can play and when they may be useful.
