In that case you can report to him directly. All the same if you reply to this (REPLY ALL), we will all have our information. I shall do my part shortly. I went through all the past mail and only now I was able to make head or tail of the whole thing. In the meantime I read the beautiful document on ALTERNATIVE CARE!I look forward to hearing from you at the earliest.TD JohnSteve Rodrigues wrote on 25.02.2012:Greetings from Don Bosco Snehalaya, Vadodara, Gujarat.

regarding your interest group together with any programs or other
events that you have carried out with regard to this topic, ------ a

Greetings from YaR Forum!
Fifteen Interest Groups that represent essential dimensions of YaR Ministry were formed by the General Body of YaR. You have accepted to be part of Psychological care Interest group. Thank You very much for that. The Responsibility of each interest group is to animate and build up the capacity of our YaR centers & YaR personnel in the dimension of Juvenile Justice.
The members of your group could come together and discuss their plans and achieve the results. The members also could work through email. At present the YaR Forum has no resources to support your efforts financially. I am making an all out effort to find some resources. But it will be very limited. Our real resource is you and your commitment and your talent which you have offered to share.
We expect from your group:
. 1. Introduce and lead discussions in the YaR Forum Google Groups ( an email discussion group) regarding your dimension. At least four to five discussions this year ( 2011-12).
2. One well prepared PowerPoint presentation regarding your dimension during this year.
3. A manual of 15 to 20 pages by February 2012 regarding your dimension which we want to print and publish.
( The manual could contain:In general about this dimension. All that a YaR center and its personnel need to know about it, the international standards, National standards, Legal Systems, Policies, the situations regarding that dimension in the country. The national and international situation on the matter. Practices and models in the YaR centers and other organizations regarding this dimension. What is YaR Forum’s attitude to it as according to its statutes, child policy etc).
Fr. Steve Rodriguez, Director of Snehalaya, Baroda was so generous as to co-ordinate these groups towards achieving the objectives. While I thank him, I request you to support his leadership with your cooperation.
With Kind Regards and Prayers.
Fr. Mathew Thomas.
