Youth Justice Survey
In January 2024, we carried out a questionnaire asking young people what justice issues they cared about. We sought the views of young people about justice and peace issues, especially but not limited to young people within the Baptist, Methodist, URC and Church of Scotland denominations (types of church).
The Joint Public Issues Team (JPIT) will use this information to help us and our partner churches create relevant resources and training tailored to young people and for those who aim to serve young people within our denominations. JPIT enables our churches to pray, speak out and act on issues of peace and justice.
