Teens today can experience a number of hurdles on their way to adulthood: forming a healthy sexual identity, using and abusing drugs, family problems, and poverty to name just a few. This collection of 15 issues from The Prevention Researcher provides research-based information about some of the more prevalent topics facing youth and families today.
With this one collection, social workers, counselors, and others who work with youth will learn about positive ways to support youth (and their families) as they transition into adulthood, from self-injury and drug addiction, to supporting positive sexual attitudes and identities, to helping youth cope with such family issues as incarceration and alcoholism.

This bundle includes these issues in both print and PDF format:
• Adolescent Prescription Drug Abuse, Vol 19(1)
• Creating Supportive Environments for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Youth, Vol 17(4)
• Adolescent Grief and Bereavement, Vol 18(3)
