Financial Literacy in a Church Youth Group

Toril Sudduth
I currently serve as the state youth president for our church organization.  I am interested in supplying these youth from the ages of 12-18 needed information as it relates to financial literacy. I understand how important this soft skill is and appreciate that it is being taught in schools but would like to incorporate some ideas into the church setting while working with youth.  I see and hear about many youth getting credit cards before they have jobs, taking out needless amounts of money in student loans and becoming heavily in debt basically before their lives begin.
