Welcome community workers!

Yours is a tough job as you often are the ones most aware of the complexity of problems surrounding youth and the lack of collaboration in communities among families, schools, government, religious organizations and community organizations. This website if for you!

Under the COMMUNITY Center, you will find a diagram and general explanation of the social systems at work in a community as well as resources for communities.

Also, check out our Encyclopedia for relevant research on issues ranging from community economic development, urban gardening, at-risk youth to faith-based collaboration (these topics are coming soon!).

Finally, please visit our Networking section to locate others who care about youth working in your area.

We hope this site will encourage you, educate you and help you work with others more effectively to improve the lives of youth in your communities.
