Dr. Stephen F. Hamilton is Professor of Human Development, Associate Director of the Family Life Development Center, and Associate Provost for Outreach at Cornell University. His research focuses the interaction of school, community, and work during the transition from adolescence to adulthood, especially in the contexts of work experience, experiential learning, community service, and mentoring relationships. He has developed youth programs through Cooperative Extension. In 1990 he published Apprenticeship for Adulthood: Preparing Youth for the Future, which was a product of a Fulbright Senior Research Fellowship in Germany. This book was influential in the School-to-Work Opportunities Act of 1994, as was the youth apprenticeship demonstration project that he and Mary Agnes Hamilton directed. His current project is a research with organizations in Latin America that support the transition to adulthood of youth from families with limited resources.
