Children & Youth

Much of West Limerick Resources work in the community is centred on youth support and youth development working both directly with young people but also with their parents and other agencies and educational institutes to identify needs and plan appropriate responses and initiatives. The main aim of this work is to address issues which lead to under-performance in school such as learning difficulties, special needs, social issues and other forms of disadvantage which can also result in early school leaving.
