metadata.value: The global use of information and communication technologies encourages the development
  and implementation of new digital methods in social work with young people. Digital innovations
  are becoming not only a source of youth empowerment but also an information resource that helps to reduce the distance between the needs of young people and the institution
  of social work. The article discusses the current state and prospects of social work
  with young people in the era of the digital society. The research focuses on reviewing existing
  digital technologies with young people, determining the limitations of using information and
  communication technologies in the social sphere, identifying the actual risks of digitalization
  in social work with young people, and determining the degree of involvement of young people
  in digital social work. The design of the study is based on the case study method for digitalization
  processes in non-profit organizations with a social orientation in St. Petersburg, including
  methods of semi-structured expert interviews (N = 11), focus groups (N = 4) and document
  analysis. The study showed an active process of youth mobilization in the activities of socially
  oriented non-profit organizations as the creator of a digital project. The analysis of NGO’s
  activities demonstrated the difficulty of transposing quantitative indicators for evaluating the
  effectiveness of information and communication technologies in social work with young people
  into socio-psychological indicators. The author concludes that the key task of successful
  implementation of digital technologies in social work with young people is the need for interdisciplinary
  interaction and cross-sectoral cooperation, involvement of social enterprises to
  participate in the development of digital social projects, and training of professionals in social
  services in the implementation of digital practices.
