Mentoring: A Synthesis of P/PV's Research: 1988-1995

by Cynthia L. Sipe
September 1996, 76 pages

This is an essential handbook for anyone interested in mentoring. It presents the evidence and conclusions that P/PV compiled from over a decade of research on mentoring programs in five crucial areas:

Can participating in mentoring programs make important and observable changes in the attitudes and behaviors of at-risk youth?

Are there specific practices that characterize effective mentoring relationships?

What program structures and supports are needed to maximize "best practices" among mentors?

Can mentoring be integrated into large-scale youth-serving institutions?

Are there large numbers of adults with enough flexible time and emotional resources to take on the demands of mentoring at-risk youngsters?

The report also includes as an appendix the executive summaries of 11 P/PV reports on mentoring.
