Office of Catholic Youth, Archdiocese of Toronto

We exist to help youth and young adults encounter, love and serve Jesus Christ.

Our Vision & Mission

Our vision is to guide youth and young adults, to Encounter, Love and Serve Jesus Christ. To see young people transformed into Christian leaders who know Christ, have a growing relationship with Him, and are empowered to evangelize, gather, catechize and send forth. Our mission is to cultivate relationships and support those who minister to young people within the Archdiocese of Toronto. We achieve this by providing consulting, training and resources at a local parish level, and host diocesan-wide conferences, camps and retreats.
