Review for Urban Youth Workers Institute, Santa Ana, CA, USA
Even years after I went through UYWI’s 1-year intensive training, I am still drawing from that well of instruction and mentorship I received. The intensive, as well as the coaching and their conferences were some of the most important factors in helping me learn the nuts and bolts of ministry. I will forever be grateful to Larry Acosta, Tommy Nixon, and the rest of the UYWI team!
Review for Urban Youth Workers Institute, Santa Ana, CA, USA
I know of no other organization like UYWI, who’s having a real impact on the inner city, by gathering up and encouraging and training, all those leaders in our major cities struggling through burnout, or small budgets, or violence in the communities they serve, etc, etc.
I myself was equipped by UYWI during an especially difficult time in my ministry in Los Angeles. Through the one on one coaching, the intensive one-year training, and the yearly conferences which served as a morale booster to all those leaders who thought they were out there on their own.
I owe a tremendous debt to Larry Acosta and UYWI, and am excited to see what amazing things they will do under the leadership of Tommy Nixon in the years to come.
