CBL Talk: Youth in Scranton 

Wednesday, Feb. 16 at 7 pm  

Pearn Auditorium, Brennan Hall, The University of Scranton 

University of Scranton students are invited to join for a CBL Talk: Youth in Scranton. This CBL Talk will feature community leaders from the Scranton School District and NEPA Youth Shelter who work with K-12 youth in the local area. They will discuss the programs they run and the challenges, hopes and dreams of the youth they encounter along the way. The city’s youth population represents the diversity of the community, faces poverty at a high rate, has endured the pandemic as children, and are posed to inherit a world with many difficulties, including global climate change. This talk will align with the Jesuit universal apostolic preference “Journey with Youth” in which Superior General, Fr. Arturo Sosa, S.J., has called on all of us to “accompany young people in the creation of a hope-filled future”.
