reflects our aspirations for all children in our society. If you are
a children or youth worker, a leader, a parent or youre just
interested in the welfare of children then this conference is designed
for you.
BMCs have the largest pool of volunteers already working with black
children. Therefore, by providing adequate training, information and
networking, our work and contribution can be developed to prevent
children from entering into the maze of exclusion, crime and under
achievement. More importantly, to offer a value based provision that
engenders confidence and encourages faith in God and good citizenship
within our society.
