YoungLives
Enrichment
There are specialized situations and needs encountered while working with the specific audience of teen parents and their children. YoungLives staff and volunteer coordinators are encouraged to participate in YoungLives training options.
Young Life Trainings
The goal of YoungLives is the same as Young Life — sharing Christ with adolescents. As such, staff and volunteer coordinators are encouraged to seek out and participate in any Young Life trainings offered by their areas, regions and divisions. For more information, please contact the Training department.
Field Leadership TRAINING
Field Leadership Training (FLT) is an adapted Leadership I and II curriculum that is designed to provide a basic Young Life training foundation for part-time and volunteer coordinators who are working with YoungLives. It is rooted in the belief that proper training serves to equip and empower staff to be more effective in their ministry settings. All YoungLives Ministry staff, both part-time or volunteer, are encouraged to go through this training experience. Please contact Ayesha Wilcox, YoungLives Learning & Resource Team Lead.
Summits
YoungLives Summits may be held in a division or a region. These summits are a great opportunity for new and veteran YoungLives coordinators and key volunteers to be encouraged, build strategy and to be equipped in their roles. Please contact your divisional coordinator with questions.
