FYIW
is a sexual abstinence based healthy relationships
program that teaches the principles of building
healthy relationships, marriages, and families.
The FYIW program uses a practical approach as to
how these principles apply to everyday life.
A unique component
of the youth portion of the program is that it
culminates with a mock wedding ceremony creating
a hands-on experience that reinforces the importance
of postponing sex until marriage; participants
exchange vows of sexual abstinence, and hugs instead
of kisses.
To have your own
FYIW mock wedding ceremony it is recommended that
you have:
- Group of youth
(preferably an even ratio of boys to girls)
- An Involved Executive
Director/Youth Leader
- Contact person
for your organization
- Youth/Parent Planning
Committee
- Facility to host
the event
- Budget for event/services
of FYIW (Scholarships are available.)
- Schedule for potential
events
- Volunteers/Sponsors
for the wedding & reception
It is recommended
that youth participate in the full eight-week
program; however, the program can be tailored
to your organization's needs.
