- What are the effects of mentoring on substance use and associated risks to personal health and well-being among youth?
- What factors condition or shape the effects of mentoring on substance use and associated risks for youth?
- What intervening processes are most important for linking mentoring to beneficial effects on substance use and associated risks for youth?
- To what extent have efforts to provide mentoring to youth with substance use prevention and intervention as priority outcomes reached and engaged the intended youth, been implemented with high quality, and been adopted and sustained by host organizations and settings?
