For Parents

Q&A with Wayne Rice

Wayne Rice, UYT's founder, answers some common questions we're asked:

What is UYT's mission?
Our goal is to help teenagers by helping their parents. Research has proven that teenagers are more likely to succeed in life if they have parents who will stay involved in their lives—all the way through adolescence. We want to help parents understand their kids better and stay connected.

How do you help parents?
Primarily by conducting seminars for parents of teens and pre-teens in churches and other youth-serving organizations. This website has many articles and helpful tips, as well as an excellent selection of books and resources.

Where do you conduct your seminars?
We've conducted hundreds of seminars attended by thousands of parents all over the United States and Canada. Check out our current seminar calendar to see if we'll be in your area soon.
