Booklet to provide parish Youth Corp groups with essential information for dealing with issues of social justice.

Abstract: 
One of the significant directions of Youth Corps is to lead young people to become a people of action, responding to needs, questioning their causes and seeking social justice. This booklet aids parish Youth Corps groups to become aware by providing information re: resource and referral persons, available talks, films and slide-tapes in 19 possible areas. These areas include alcoholism, the blind, the deaf, the mentally retarded, the physically handicapped and Big Brothers and Sisters. Additional information is provided for arranging a group experience in the home or institution; for planning a project or for beginning a volunteer program. Whatever the method used to deepen the awareness, the importance of reflection cannot be minimized.
