Abstract | This special report briefly presents information about innovative programs targeted toward at-risk youth in the United States that are provided by many institutional members of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU). Twelve model programs out of 250 were selected for the report. Among the issues the programs address are: health education; high school completion; mentoring; job training; early childhood education; faculty development and teacher training; parental involvement; and community partnerships. The twelve programs are listed with the program's name, institution, program description, and contact. In addition, the report discusses barriers to successful strategies that hinder program creation and provides AASCU recommendations and implications for a national policy designed to help at-risk youth. Finally, specific proposals are listed that are directed toward the President, the Congress, the Federal Government, state/local legislatures, business, and community organizations to determine a national agenda for influencing issues affecting high-risk youth.
