As opposed to other existing youth centres under the Y.M.C.A. and Y.W.C.A. (Young Men/Women
Christian Association), which have emphasis on hostel and recreational facilities my centre
will have emphasis on training facilities. This is because in order to help the youth, they
must have access to skills that will equip them to help themselves so that they will be
better members of a future society. | en_US |
