Community based interventions such as raising resilience and building on
social capital are suggested as means to deal with the stressors,
adversarial and difficult transitions in young people's lives and issues
which promote exclusion and dissatisfaction with systems.
It is recommended that interventions should attempt to link youth into the
relevant systems such as school and appropriate community based youth
services so that families facing adversity, disaffection or exclusion will
have their lives improved.
Evidence from the review proposes that approaches such as mentoring
and use of planned group work sport or social activity will greatly assist in
helping the engagement of young people and their family.
