Peer Mentoring in Criminal Justice reveals a diverse practice, which can involve one-to-one sessions, group work or more informal leisure activities. Despite diversity, five dominant themes are uncovered. These include
, which is deployed to inspire change and elevate knowledge based on lived experiences;
, or a sense of self-direction, which emerges through dialogue between peers;
or core conditions, including caring, listening and taking small steps;
, which can be a terrifying and difficult struggle, yet can be mediated by mentors; and
, which is at play within mentoring relationships and within the organisations, contexts and ideologies that surround peer mentoring. Peer mentoring offers mentors a practical opportunity to develop confidence, skills and hope for the future, whilst offering inspiration, care, empathy and practical support to others.
Written in a clear and direct style this book will appeal to students and scholars in criminology, sociology, cultural studies, social theory and those interested in learning about the social effects of peer mentoring.
