"Catholic youth agencies are doing many new things these days: conducting more criminal background checks on employees and volunteers, mandating training sessions where people discuss sex abuse by priests and youth workers, scraping for money to handle those procedures and imposing new limits on their youth workers' relationships with kids." (YOUTH TODAY) This article discusses how many youth workers are struggling "with how to maintain the kind of relationships that are at the heart of good youth development work, while limiting or even stopping age-old youth work practices like hugging, private get-togethers and friendship."
