AbstractThis article describes a recent study on young night drifters in Hong Kong, which is currently an alarming youth problem in the territory. The social background, subculture, and problems faced by these young people are introduced. Employing an environmental perspective, the causes of their night-drifting behavior are suggested. In addition, the identified service needs of, and proposed services for, these young people are also presented. It is believed that this study has implications for youth policy makers and service providers in countries that have encountered similar problems.
