Sydney Trainer Workshop

Guest blogger: Melinda Atkinson, YAM Instructor and prospective YAM Trainer writing from Australia.

Last week six YAM Instructors gathered in Sydney for a two day workshop, our first step to becoming YAM Trainers. We are very grateful to Camilla, Vlad and Will for travelling such a long way to conduct this workshop. It was amazing to learn even more about the YAM program and how important it is to train new Instructors to best engage youth and give them a voice in regards to their mental health. We are very much looking forward to participating in our first course as Trainers in August and introducing even more people into the wonderful YAM family!
