Well, by now you should be well underway with the program. I trust that all is well and the initial bugs and jitters have been worked out and you're now a well oiled mentoring machine. If not, please don't hesitate to ask for some guidance and help. YAC is constantly looking for ways to tweak and improve the program, so as you have ideas, please pass them on to us. Be aware too, that coming up

This post will seek to address several reoccurring questions about the River Running training curriculum that is to be used as part of SALT1.1. Yes, you will need vol. 1 & 2 in order to complete this first year of the program.2. Prior to this year River Running (R.R.) was one whole book, not two separate volumes. As such, the SALT manual was created using the single R.R. book, which now makes

It was recently brought to our attention that on page 18 of the manual it states that YAC is to have the final say as to whether accept or reject a student's application. This is incorrect, the SALT Point Person has the final say and YAC is simply here as a guide/help if we are so needed. Sorry if this has created any confusion along the way as you've planned and prepared.Secondly, we realize

It's getting close, September that is and the start of the SALT program. At this point in the process you likely have had contact with students that are interested in the program. You should be collecting applications at this time, reviewing them and then making follow up contact with students. Once you know which students will be participating this year, begin to contact potential mentors and

Let's be honest, it can down right difficult to recruit within the church, especially when the job at hand requires any sort of teaching. The fact of the matter is, the strength of the SALT program rests largely on the shoulders of the mentors. The brave men and women who take up the challenge to come along side a teen for 10 months and love on them. The best mentors however, may not be the

Churches, SALT Point Persons, Students...Now that August is upon us it's definitely time to be thinking seriously about starting up a SALT program within your church/group. Remember that come September the program has begun and it's important to get off to a great start.The first step in this process is to spread the word; both to students and adults (that could serve as mentors). Once the word

Within each level of the SALT program both students and mentors are expected to have their own personal copy of the training material. Acquisition of the material is flexible; students and mentors may choose to purchase their own or churches may choose to subsidize the total cost or partial cost of the materials.As you may imagine, there are many places in which these training materials can be
