- Summary:
- "In Reclaiming Youth at Risk: Our Hope for the Future, authors Larry K. Brendtro, Martin Brokenleg, and Steve Van Bockern examine the environmental factors that lead to alienation in today's youth. This book makes the case that all children can become at risk if they possess unmet developmental needs and if they lack positive relationships with others. As with the previous edition, the third edition integrates Native American childrearing philosophies and Western psychology to create a unique alternative for reaching troubled youth. Brendtro, Brokenleg, and Bockern introduce the Circle of Courage and its four values--(1) belonging, (2) mastery, (3) independence, and (4) generosity--as the model for reclaiming disconnected and lost youth. By presenting clear and powerful tools and strategies for supporting the growth and well-being of troubled youth, Reclaiming Youth at Risk prepares educators to create effective reclaiming environments"-- Provided by publisher.
