1. Specific Goals during the term
First Memo has been sent to all RSDs/RDs in ASP.
Either STEP or YEEP, possibility of at least 1 in and 1out.
2. Measures to be taken to achieve the above mentioned goals
Each RSD has been reminded to
- promote STEP & YEEP in their respective regions motivating to invite the youth from Y’s Mens’ & Y’s Youth clubs to apply either for STEP or YEEP in order to enjoy and experience the spirit of Y’sdom in the life of Y’s Men families.
- At the same time applicants be reminded that these two programmes should not be considered as “holiday”.
3. Achievements Made
- Koshi Nakamura from Japan West completed his wonderful experience on STEP in August 2018.
