A Common Youth Initiative

A Common Youth Initiative immerses youth and adult leaders from around the country into the diverse neighborhoods and communities of Philadelphia. Participants engage in service work throughout the city—identifying and confronting stereotypes that exist in society around urban poverty and marginalized communities. Through daily dialogue at work sites, small discussion groups, and worship, participants develop rich theological, social, and academic understandings of justice while recognizing ways in which Holy Scripture calls for justice and love for all—fostering conversations focused on topics such as lifelong service and discipleship.  For information on registration, contact acyi@thecommonplacephilly.org
