Youth Worker Focus Team


​History
Formed in August of 2017 as a Youth Worker Focus Group, this group began meeting to assist with the development of trainings and programs for Diocese of Atlanta Youth Workers. For the next 2 years, this group would meet regularly to plan and facilitate events for Youth Workers, offering mentorship to incoming Youth Workers, and serve as a sounding board for the Office of Youth Ministries. In June of 2019 after 2 years of service, the Office of Youth Ministries moved this group into a permanent structure as the Youth Worker Focus Team. 

Purpose
The purpose of the Youth Worker Focus Team is to assist the Office of Youth Ministries in forming a community for Youth Workers.

Vision
The Youth Worker Worker Focus Team envisions living into the purpose by doing the following.
  • Coordinating  and facilitating trainings and community events for Youth Workers
  • Serving as mentors to incoming Youth Workers
  • Advocating for youth and youth worker participation on a diocesan level
  • Discern and select youth and youth leaders for special events like Province IV Networking and Episcopal Youth Event
