Really? The training discusses safety for both the student AND the mentor. I suggest watching the video once again. YP training ALSO protects FIRST from some lawsuits and also provides you a small amount of protection as well. More importantly following the suggested guidelines will protect students and prevent you from being falsely accused of inappropriate behaviors. In addition, the youth protection programs makes it harder for known offenders to gain access to the youth.
