The Volunteer's Guide to Helping Teenagers in Crisis

Beschreibung

Teenagers now face a different world than they would have even ten years ago. Confronted with new choices and challenges, they grow up exposed to influences that can arise in high school such as fights, sexual abuse, eating disorders. These can be overwhelming, and, when teens look for advice, volunteers need to know how to help.
