"More Time for Teens:
Understanding Teen Participation - Frequency, Intensity, Duration - in
Boys and Girls Clubs."
While this paper speaks to the Club experience, the learnings are
representative of youth centres in general - places which are dedicated
to youth and/or children and youth. Good information for program
development and recommendations for program expansion (reference
the information on frequency and duration). An easy read if you skip
through the theoretical and research information.
