Mentoring as service-learning for undergraduates.
Abstract
Service-learning can play a critical role in the professional development of college students majoring in the social sciences. Moreover, it can strengthen relationships between college campuses and communities. We describe the results of the evaluation of a service-learning project designed to facilitate delinquency prevention and to promote resiliency in at-risk youth in our community. The involvement of undergraduate and graduate students has proven instrumental to the overall success of the program.
