Youth Leader Resources
As a youth leader your role is important and sometimes difficult. Often we are not prepared for the challenging moral issues that surface within our youth group. At all times we need to turn to God in prayer for guidance and should seek advice and support from ecclesial elders where necessary. Please find listed below some existing materials that could be used to help understand youth and their perspective on life, or as materials to use when addressing topics in a CYC setting.

Puberty - understanding physical changes, sexual development, menstruation, masturbation, and fear of abnormality.
