What we are offering...In this current climate and time of crisis, there is an urgent need to empower young people with confidence and hope for their futures. Lockdown has left them with questions about their faith and anxiety about the future. As a consequence, KYT is offering a new programme: 'Quo Vadis'. This programme will ask them the question: 'Where are you going?' with the aim of supporting them with the tough questions surrounding their faith, supporting them with mental health and well-being, to empower them to make choices and enable them to reflect and 'gather' as a Catholic community through shared experience, even during a time of social distancing. Alongside this Catholic mental health resource to support young people, we will offer training and a mentoring resource for staff in schools, as school life establishes its 'new normal'.

Delivery Methods
Our programme for young people will be offered in a variety of ways so that schools can choose a style that suits their particular circumstances. The Catholic mental health resource is delivered in 12 sessions with an accompanying journal. It is designed to be a flexible grab and go resource. There is the option of using the Soli Outreach team to deliver parts of the programme through optional launch days and retreat days. Our Outreach team can work with small groups of the most vulnerable or up to a whole year group in a carousel. We can deliver content and training in person or remotely using virtual tools. We have designed it to be lockdown proof! Talk to us about what will work best for your school.
Training &

We are offering support for schools with training on several different levels either remotely or in person:

12 session resource |
The vision for these sessions is that they will equip students to mentor younger students with support and additional training. Therefore extending the reach of the sessions and enabling young people to respond to their experiences in a positive way. Through the sessions and journal young people will be able to articulate their recent experiences and process their own thoughts and feelings connected to lockdown. Peer mentorship has the potential to enhance both the scope and experience of the sessions. Schools could utilise this element of the programme in a variety of ways; older students mentoring a younger year group or an at risk group, delivering the session, supporting teachers in delivery of the session, meeting in one-one's or in small groups. The mentoring programme is designed to be flexible and scale up or down to meet the specific needs of your school community.

Mentoring
|
The aim of Quo Vadis is to engage young people with the question of where they are going and accompany them on the journey. On the road to Emmaus Jesus walked alongside the disciples who were anxious and directionless after life had taken an unexpected turn. In a similar way, lockdown has left many young people on the road away from their faith and on a road of anxiety and worry about the future. Quo Vadis will support young people in asking, and answering the big questions they have, enabling them to see the real treasures that our Catholic faith offers for the whole person. Across 12 sessions and through an accompanying journal this new programme will support mental health and well-being, encouraging everyone to see the goodness in their daily lives and the hope that trust in God will bring for their futures.
