Child and youth services organizations provide nonresidential social assistance directly to minors and their families — activities may include adoption placement, foster care coordination, after-school programming, mentoring, life skills training, drug prevention education, and youth development programs. Staff and volunteers typically interact directly and regularly with minors in both group and one-on-one settings, often at a fixed facility but sometimes at schools, homes, or community sites.
