Youth Programs

The Youth Office is pleased to announce that, with the cooperation of some new technology, we have been able to do a major upgrade to the Resources page (http://www.uua.org/YRUU/resources/index.html ) on the YRUU website! (http://www.uua.org/YRUU/news.html ) Almost every single resource we have listed on our website now has a "Printable Version" link next to it -- meaning, you can download a pdf version of the resource and print it out yourself, instead of ordering it from us and waiting a few weeks for it to come (of course, you can still do it that way if you prefer!)

This availability includes both our major booklet-form resources like the Local Youth Group Handbook and the Coming of Age Resource, as well as our shorter primarily online resources, which are now available in both browse-online and download-print forms! (A small warning - some of these files were created from scans, meaning they're *big* to download!)

We hope this increased availability of resources helps you all out – as always, let us know if there are new resources you'd like to see!

Along with our resource page update, we've created a great BRAND NEW resource called "Get Involved with UUism!" It's a comprehensive resource for youth who want to get involved in UUism *beyond* YRUU. There's information and insight about getting involved in leadership at the congregational, district/regional, and national/continental levels, as well as info about different UU-related organizations. It's a must-have resource for any youth group full of UU Superstars!

As with all our resources, this is available in both browse-online and download-print formats at: http://www.uua.org/YRUU/resources/index.html#online
