General Objectives

  • Community Building of Children & Youth Workers

    The Track will promote community among youth workers in order to encourage, pray for and love one another.  The primary objective is to inspire, encourage and challenge youth workers to continue the great work they are doing in a difficult and often lonely ministry.

  • Equip & Train Youth Workers

    The Track will provide opportunities for the development of programs and staff through conferences, seminars and workshops designed to enhance the effectiveness of ministry to at-risk children & youth.

  • Central Resource Station

    The Track will provide a central place for the building and sharing of resources among children & youth workers.  Through various media such as the internet, newsletters, individual/group email lists and the AGRM website; the track will address issues, concerns and practical solutions for youth workers.

  • National Networking

    The Track will network with other organizations to further the work of evangelizing and discipling at-risk children & youth in ministries of the AGRM.  This could include creating or recommending regional training confrences, attending national meetings to promote our Track agenda and/or monthly contact with national leaders.
