For Parents of Youth

Haygood Student Ministries understands that youth ministry "happens" outside the four walls of church and usually with the adults who see them most. Thankfully, solid research continues to show that parents are the number one influencers of their teenagers. Haygood Student Ministries works with parents through information meetings, networking, and educational events to equip, educate, and support them.
