Every youth leader is an advocate for youth ministry. As an advocate, a true supporter, you must help others — parents, church leadership, teachers, athletic coaches, community officials, and even youth — understand why ministry to and through youth matters. Furthermore, intentionally advocating for youth ministry will motivate you to keep going and inspire others to partner with you. And it may save your job, too!
This handbook is structured to get you thinking about how you can prayerfully and intentionally advocate for Youth Ministry in your own setting and context.
