R.E.A.L. Formation is a culturally responsive catechetical program designed for Hispanic youth. Many assume that this age group doesn’t want to open up or talk about God. But what if the issue isn’t the students — What if it’s the way the material is presented?

The R.E.A.L. Formation Participant Book is designed for them — not just to teach the faith, but to make it relevant to their lives. It has been written for high school students and is intended to lead them into early adulthood — even still it may be used for middle school, and many of the lessons have been effective with young adults as well. The aim is to be a Confirmation leadership development program.
