dc.description.abstractIn 1996, Mary Naliaka approached me at my place of pastoral work and expressed her concerned over the issue of drug use and its abuse among the youth as a serious problem in Consolata Parish in Westlands, Nairobi. It came to my attention that this problem required urgently to be addressed to assist our youth that were at risk. The number of young people using drugs was on the rise and what counted was the immediate concern and quick intervention of the Church. What could I do? The more I thought of this issue, the less prepared I felt to give my contribution. Being a student of theology; what good could theology do on this social issue of youth and drugs? What was the importance of learning theology in a social world where young people abuse drugs? It was the concern I had for the youth and the determination to provide suggestions to them that provoked me to write this essay. I was confident that the Church in Kenya, particularly in Westlands could do something for these youth. My contribution was to create awareness among the youth so as to curb this problem in the parish. This is what this essay is all about as will be discussed in the following Chapters.en_US
