	Empowering Young People Pilots evaluation (published February 2010)&lt;/h1&gt;&#xD;
&lt;p&gt;&#xD;
	This is an evaluation of a pilot programme that made funds available so that the most disadvantaged young people in the nine pilot areas could access positive activities.&lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
&lt;h1&gt;&#xD;
	Risky behaviour and social activities (published November 2009)&lt;/h1&gt;&#xD;
&lt;p&gt;&#xD;

	Positive activities: Qualitative research with parents (published August 2009)&lt;/h1&gt;&#xD;
&lt;p&gt;&#xD;
	This research sought to understand the barriers, motivators and messages for parents to encourage taking part in positive activities for young people and to assess&amp;nbsp;the level of influence of parents in whether a young person participates or what a young person might participate in.&lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
&lt;h1&gt;&#xD;
	Positive activities: Qualitative research with young people (published August 2009)&lt;/h1&gt;&#xD;
