Title: An Evaluation of Parental Assessment of the Big Brothers/Big Sisters Program in New York City

Authors: Frecknall, Peter; Luks, Alan.

Description: Parents rated impact of Big Brother/Big Sister program on children along variables of school attendance, grades, family relationship, friendship, self-esteem, staying out of trouble, being responsible, frequency of contact, and length of time in program. Although children were rated as benefiting significantly from program, children's frequency of contact did not have significant effect on outcome measures.
