Helping parishes grow thriving Catholic youth communities

The Carlo Acutis Association supports parishes to establish and sustain youth groups where young people can grow in faith, build friendships and become part of the life of their parish.

Inspired by St Carlo Acutis, we provide the practical resources, formation and ongoing accompaniment that help parish youth ministry flourish.

Starting a youth group can feel daunting. You don’t have to do it alone. CAA accompanies parishes from the very beginning, helping you bring together a team, plan your youth groups, access practical resources and safeguarding guidance, launch successfully and continue developing your youth ministry as it grows.
