Relationships are the heart of the work: mentoring relationships within gender-responsive programs for black girls

Brinkman, Britney G, Marino, Samantha, Manning, Lauren·2018·Journal of Feminist Family Therapy

Abstract

Research suggests that the well-being of black girls is often neglected in schools and juvenile justice systems. Gender-responsive programs designed to serve black girls can be beneficial if they focus on developing strong relationships between girls and adults. Researchers conducted in-depth interviews with 10 black girls and 10 adults at a gender-responsive agency. Staff members and girls discussed the ways mentoring relationships developed at the agency. Themes emerged related to positive relationships (the development of positive relationships, integrity and trustworthiness, perceived support, and role modeling) as well as potential challenges/barriers (challenges to trust, perceived judgment, advice giving, and confidentiality).

  • The promoting-catalyzing component encourages self-esteem, autonomy and self-direction, role modeling, guidance, advocacy, empowerment and challenge, future planning, and promoting motivation, and includes skill-based career and academic support.

    “The third component of promoting-catalyzing encourages self-esteem, autonomy and self-direction, role modeling, guidance, advocacy, empowerment and challenge, future planning, and promoting motivation. Other elements of this component include skill-based career and academic support [80,82,83,85,86,88,92,93,98,108].”
  • The emotional component is the most frequently engaged and includes aspects of trust, reliability, consistency, support, and authenticity in mentoring programs in all formats operating with American, European, Israeli, and Australian youth.

    “The emotional component, which is the most frequently engaged, includes aspects of trust, reliability, consistency, support, and authenticity in mentoring programs in all formats operating with American, European, Israeli, and Australian youth [78,80,85,86,87,88,89,90,91,92,93,94,95,96].”
  • These positive outcomes are particularly manifest when non-judgment, advice-giving, and confidentiality are preserved and when shared experiences of discrimination and shared socioeconomic status are integrated into the relationship.

    “These positive outcomes are particularly manifest when non-judgment, advice-giving, and confidentiality are preserved [85] and when shared experiences of discrimination and shared socioeconomic status are integrated into the relationship [107].”
  • Theoretical writings and qualitative studies have suggested that race and ethnic similarity may comprise key facets of attraction and closeness, as shared culture is more likely to improve the strength and length of the relationship by facilitating processes of idealization, role modeling, and identification.

    “Theoretical writings [164] and qualitative studies [85,107,170] have suggested that race and ethnic similarity may comprise key facets of attraction and closeness, as shared culture is more likely to improve the strength and the length of the relationship by facilitating processes of idealization, role modeling, and identification.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
