Thirty American academics, researchers, and practitioners contribute 11 chapters describing exemplary programs from throughout the U.S. that were designed to promote and strengthen positive functioning and address problematic realities of adolescent females. Among these examples are programs suitable for developing and implementing in various settings: schools, YWCAs, youth camps, after-school programs, mental health agencies, and youth agencies. The issues they address include universal prevention, friendships and peer relationships, eating disorders, depression, HIV prevention among African American girls, leadership training for young Latinas, family treatment, and mentorship. It is the editor's hope that the book will inspire more efforts to develop new programs, involve more young girls, and generate enough force over time to change their future. For researchers and practitioners including social workers, psychologists, teachers, school principals, and youth development professionals.
