Georgetown: There has lately been an increase in the number of youth groups being developed across the country and this would assist in decreasing the level of juvenile delinquency, according to Minister of Culture, Youth and Sport Dr. Frank Anthony.
Minister Anthony said the Ministry has made work books to develop the capacity of the groups, to guide them in the right path, and also to help them accomplish their set goals. These books include basic constitutions of a group, thereby enabling group leaders to implement these constitutions in a better way, and also issue copies to other group members to enable them to have a clear understanding of what should and should not be done.
Minister Anthony also noted that groups can use these books as resource manuals. If these youth groups are continually rendered proper assistance, more young people would be occupied whenever they have spare time, and this would contribute to a decrease in juvenile delinquency Because more youths would be encouraged to join a group, more youths would spend more time interacting with fellow group members, and this would assist in achieving the groups’ stated goal.
