From the publisher
Youth at Risk is an essential resource for anyone counseling, advocating for, and supporting youth of diverse backgrounds and contexts. It includes tried-and-true approaches right alongside must reads related to our post-COVID and rapidly changing technological and social-media driven context.
Organized into 19 chapters, editors David Capuzzi and Mark Stauffer, along with leading experts from across the field, cover topics ranging from identity and self-esteem issues to substance use and mood disorders. It includes unique, informative chapters for parents on the impact of social media and artificial intelligence, featuring case studies and "keys for engaging youth" that provide techniques or interventions that could be used when working with youth.
This edition delivers crucial updates and expansions in the field of youth risk prevention and intervention, incorporating post-COVID-19 pandemic realities throughout the text. Seven chapters are brand new, focusing on such important topics as LGBTQIA2S+ youth; multicultural youth; social media and technology; homelessness; resources for parents; and artificial intelligence. It also infuses diversity and social justice throughout and maps its content to the DSM-5-TR.
Designed as a resource for educators, mental health professionals, advocates, and parents, this textbook serves as a guide for undergraduate and graduate studies in counseling, education, social work, and youth advocacy.
