Catch Them Young, Inc. Joy Stevenson

As I look at our current situation in America, everyone seems to be talking about the economic crisis. I believe we are facing a crisis that is bigger, more far-reaching and longer lasting. That crisis is our American Youth. Over the years, we have made strides in science, technology and social prowess, however; I question if we are truly moving forward. The things that used to be unacceptable, immoral or illegal have become socially accepted. This publication suggests proven practices that if applied will aid in rehabilitating this present generation and generations to come. Dr. Francis S. Cole, Ph. D. U. S. Department of Labor, Washington, D. C. We cannot afford to leave our next generation to chance, there is too much at stake, if we pull together, we can all make it happen. The beauty of caring for children and assisting youth, is that no matter what color, religion, creed, nationality, or background, they are all children, OUR children, and we have an obligation to invest in them.
