National Conference of Youth Workers
The largest training event of the year ended on April 8. 106 youth workers from all over Romania gathered together to learn how to become A Skilled Helper. This is our fifth track, and the last one, in our training course for youth leaders. The theme we've approached was, as you've probably guessed, an introduction in youth counseling. You know, lots of tears are shed during those years. We, as youth shepperds, must learn how to use handkerchiefs. Even we are not becoming professional counselors, we need to develop some basic skills in counseling.
So, there it was. The conference just had multiple small groups discussions, case studies and lots of practical counseling activities. I can tell you that I'm so encouraged by the quality youth workers we have in Romania. There is hope for the new generation. New Hope!
