Youth Transition Network
ACSI (Association of Christian Schools International) has joined as a coalition member with an almost brand-new ministry, Youth Transition Network (YTN). This ministry was developed out of a deep concern for the startling numbers of young men and women who fall away from or ignore their spiritual life after leaving high school. YTN is focused on combating the spiritual loss of youth by helping motivate, prepare, and transition our next generation of leaders into the next phase of their spiritual journey on a college campus, in a career, or on a military base. YTN has developed a powerful website that has a plethora of resources.
YTN’s strategy is to provide youth leaders, who are currently engaged with high school students, and the students and their families one place to connect with ministries that will help students continue to grow when they graduate.
The YTN website is designed to help connect students to ministries, friends, and roommates—three vital links that help students stand firm in a tempting environment. At each of the more than 4,000 campuses and 1,000 military bases, there is a Christian community portal.
We urge you to visit YTN’s site, www.LiveAbove.com, and see what a powerful resource has been developed for students. You can also access YTN’s site through a hot link at www.acsi.org.
