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.
