Abstract

Children who are victims of social and environmental deprivation often turn in the vicious circle to truancy, vandalism and crime. The special educational needs of children at risk were recognised in the 1970s by the establishment of the Youth Encounter Projects. St. Paul's Youth Encounter Project in Finglas is ten years old this year.
