Programs Overview
YTI Summer Academy
The YTI Summer Academy is a 29-year-old ecumenical program in justice-seeking theological education. Our next Summer Academy will be held July 7-20, 2024. The goal of our Summer Academy is to empower young people by providing space where they can explore their most important questions about both faith and the world alongside youth who share their interests and adults with theological training. YTI Online
YTI Online meets weekly for one hour. Often we focus our conversations around a book we read together that we provide to you. Group members decide how we proceed and what we read. This is a time and space where you can get support from adults who relate to you as equals and where you can ask any and all questions you have about God, the Bible, the world, any questions you are carrying with you. YTI Custom Workshops
YTI can offer custom workshops of varying lengths at your church or school. We work with you to shape the workshop in response to the needs of your community. All of our workshops are shaped by YTI's mission to share critical theological tools with youth. |
