Youth and Community Work

Youth and community workers organise social, recreational and educational activities to meet the needs of specific age groups, genders or ethnic minorities.  They work alongside schools, churches, the police, clubs and other community organisations.   Youth workers have a particular role to help young people fulfil their potential and to help them in their personal and social development.  Some youth and community workers may specialise in helping people with specific difficulties, for example drug and alcohol abuse.
