Turin, Italy - November 2023 - Hundreds of young people from the various Salesian places around the Piedmont and Aosta Valley Special Circumscription (ICP) gathered in Valdocco on 19 November to take part in the "SYM DAY". The event was attended by a special guest, Fr Claudio Burgio. In his speech, he explained to the young people present that "There are no bad boys", offering his testimony as Chaplain of the Beccariac juvenile prison in Milan and founder of the Kayros Shelter Community. Fr Burgio met the young people first all together in a packed Teatro Grande Valdocco, then in groups divided into two and three years, with the opportunity to ask some questions. This was followed by time for confessions. After lunch and time for play, the day ended with the Eucharistic celebration all together in the Basilica of Mary Help of Christians.
