Blog:  Random Acts Of Kindness!  Mentor an at rick child or teen!  Encouraged people achieve the best; dominated people achieve second best;  neglected people achieve the least." - Anonymous     There are many factors that go into defining a youth as “at-risk” -A teen who  struggles in school or has problems with athority. Children who come from broken  families or low-income households are often more susceptible to drug and alcohol  abuse. Many times all these youth need is an influential adult in their lives,  someone to believe in them and encourage them.
Benefits
It isn’t uncommon for at-risk youth to fight depression and thoughts of  suicide. Oftentimes they end up in gangs or get in trouble with the judicial  system, situations that are very hard to pull themselves out of. That’s where  having a mentor can be very beneficial. If they have someone who holds them  accountable, someone who believes in them, it will be much easier to avoid the  negative forcesin their lives, and work to achieve their dreams.
Step It Up
Become involved with a mentoring program in your community. Maybe you have  experiences that can help you relate to them. Making a difference in a child or  teen's life could change your own life. Help him or her set goals and define the  path necessary to reach them. Or help him or her find a hobby he or she is good  at. Most of all, just be a strong support system for that youth.
Keep It Simple
Look for at-risk warning signs in your own children, and to help them  overcome the stressors that influence them, without drugs or alcohol.
