Abstract
Reducing the Risk: Schools as Communities of Support, a book that describes the first phase of a research project and proposes a theory of dropout prevention, will be published by Falmer Press in early 1989. Two of the authors, Gary G. Wehlage-associate director, National Center on Effective Secondary Schools (NCESS) at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, and principal investigator for the Center's project to study policies and practices that affect at-risk youth—and Gregory A. Smith-a project assistant on the same project-were interviewed by Anne Turnbaugh Lockwood, dissemination coordinator for NCESS.
