I commit, to the best of my ability, to do the morning sessions with debriefers and the personal assignments (2-4 hours in afternoons or evenings for adults) so I will get the most out of this time?I accept that the YWAM Member Care Team are trained debriefers, not licensed counselors, psychologist, or psychiatrists and will provide no form of diagnosis.I accept that YWAM Member Care Team might suggest that I seek help from a licensed professional for further help after my debrief.I understand that debriefing helps process transition, loss, and injustice, but it is not a guaranteed ‘fix.’I understand and agree that I are responsible for my (our) own transportation unless otherwise agreed upon in advance.
FOR THOSE BRINGING A NANNY

I understand that kids under 7 will need a nanny to come be with them while adults and kids 7+ are in sessions.I understand that nannies will need to be registered/paid for as attending the debrief. When I register them, I will be able to indicate if they need their own room or if they will room with my kids/family.
