Youth Ministry : Strong Catholic Familes: Strong Catholic Youth

What is Strong Catholic Families?

Strong Catholic Families is an initiative developed by NFCYM to help parishes better support parents as the primary catechists of their parents.  In the Archdiocese of Seattle, this is being co-sponsored by the Offices of: Youth and Young Adult Ministry, Catholic Faith Formation, Catholic Schools Department and the Vicar of Clergy. 

The purpose is to equip parishes with the tools necessary to successfully administer the program to their own parish.
