Annotated Bibliography

"Big Brothers Big Sisters of New York City." Big Brothers Big Sisters of New York City: The Power to Change Lives. Big Brothers Big Sisters of New York City, 2008. Web. 30 Mar. 2012. . The official Big Brothers Big Sisters of New York City website should be very helpful. I have already found some useful facts that I will most definitely be including in my research paper.

"Does Mentoring Work?" Evaluation Review. Web. 30 Mar. 2012. . This website questions whether or not mentoring works, and it includes valuable information that I can use when writing my research paper. It talks about the cold, hard, facts about the Big Brothers Big Sisters Program, and how statistics show that it has generally created positive results.

Dubois, David L., and Helen A. Neville. "Youth Mentoring: Investigation of Relationship Characteristics and Perceived Benefits." Wiley Online Library. John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1997. Web. 30 Mar. 2012. . This article talks about the mentors of Big Brothers Big Sisters and the ratings of what they actually do.

Freedman, Marc. "The Kindness of Strangers: Reflections on the Mentoring Movement." ERIC – World’s Largest Digital Library of Education Literature. Public/Private Ventures, 399 Market Street, Philadelphia, PA 19106-2178., 1991. Web. 30 Mar. 2012. . This is an essay that discusses implications of mentoring and the Big Brothers Big Sisters Program as a whole.

"Start Something for a Child Today-Big Brothers Big Sisters." Big Brothers Big Sisters. Big Brothers Big Sisters of America. Web. 30 Mar. 2012. . This is the actual Big Brothers Big Sisters website. I plan on getting most of my statistics and explanatory information from this website, mainly because it is the most credible since it is their official website.
