Conversations On The Fringe

When culture changes as rapidly as ours, often it is our young who are pushed to the fringes of society. We see this happening in our schools, churches, communities and neighborhoods. Many youth workers have expressed a need to acquire better training for themselves and their adult leaders who work on the fringes with kids who may be marginalized, cast out, ignored, or face other behavioral challenges. Walking alongside youth struggling with these complex issues is a messy vocation and takes not only courage, but also resources.

Conversations on the Fringe strives to provide such resources as training seminars, literature, a link to mental health professionals, as well as successful and practical ideas– giving a better understanding of the challenges troubled children and adolescents face in the hopes of ultimately leading them into healthy relationships with God and others.
