Natural mentors help mold lives of teens, study says

The study concluded that the benefits of having a mentor generally were not enough to outweigh the negative effects of different risk factors that many young people experience, such as poverty, unsafe neighborhoods and troubled family relationships.

"Our findings highlight the positive difference that a mentoring relationship can make in the life of a young person," DuBois said. "But they also tell us that we need to look at these relationships as only one part of the answer to the enormously challenging issue of how to ensure the health and success of our nation's young people."

DuBois suggests that structured programs and services for youth and natural mentoring should be woven together to make each more effective.
