Youth Work Central
Working with young people is an important, challenging, and hugely rewarding profession. Youth workers help to shape the lives of the young people they work with. These young people, in turn, will shape the futures of their own communities. Youth Work Central provides the support and professional development opportunities youth workers need to do this important job.

A resource of TMF's BEST Initiative, Youth Work Central brings together people, expertise, and resources for youth workers' continued professional development. This site is:
A forum for sharing resources
A place to learn about approaches and strategies critical to youth work
An up-to-date source of information about events and opportunities

Youth Work Central is a resource for all youth workers, such as:

Staff of out-of-school-time programs
Peer leadership program adult advisors
Teachers
Leadership-level staff of youth-serving organizations
Social service personnel
Anyone who works to impact the lives of young people!

By helping to build youth workers' knowledge and skills, Youth Work Central contributes to the further professionalization of youth work. Creating and raising standards for youth work is good for the profession, and ultimately improves the quality of services for young people.

Youth Work Central is an on-line resource of The Medical Foundation, a leader in youth development and health promotion.
