Program Description

Get Advice - At Get Advice, you can send out an anonymous question to the other LDS teens using the site. Your question will be sent to 20 individuals that have said they would like to help answer questions like this. Those 20 teens will be able to read your question and see your age and nickname only. They will then respond and you can read their responses in the bottom half of the page of "Get Advice" by clicking on the number of responses to each question you submitted. All questions and responses are subject to approval. If you would like to stay in contact or seek further advice from someone in particular that answered your question, you can send them a message privately using the message system. You just need to know their nickname. There are Sample Questions with responses to help give you an idea of how this works.

Give Advice - At Give Advice, you have the ability to answer the questions that others have submitted. You have to be signed up for this service. Anyone can sign up by going to "My Profile" and selecting Yes to "Send other members' problems to me for response?" At My Profile you can also choose to be emailed a notice when someone requests your advice. You can then come to "Give Advice" and there will be a list of questions with a box below each one. You can read the question and type in your answer below it. You do not have to answer every single question before submitting your responses. If you leave one blank, it will be there next time you login. If you do not want to answer a question, you can mark it so and it will be deleted from your questions to answer. You can also answer a question anonymously. No information will be given about you to the person who asked the question. Otherwise, your nickname appears with your response. All responses are subject to approval.

One on One - One on One is our way of describing the help that you can get by being assigned to one mentor to help you as you keep track of your progress in overcoming an obstacle, usually an addiction. There are three ways to keep track of your progress and your mentor in the One on One program will be able to see what you enter into all three. You'll be asked to identify a long term goal. That is what you want to change in your life and it applies throughout all three One on One programs. You can then select to set goals and keep track of your progress, identify what leads up to sin, and learn how to take ownership of the decision that you're making to change. If you have questions, send a message to "Dan."

Discussion Groups - Discussion Groups are created so that individuals can get together with others that are struggling with the same things and talk about positive ways of dealing with it. We do not talk about problems, only solutions. Discussion groups are each assigned a moderator that leads weekly discussions, often dealing with ways of overcoming temptation. Discussion group members can also create their own topics and seek advice or input of other group members. These are called Discussion and Issues. After you have joined a group, it will show up in a list of "Active Programs." Below the name of the group will be Issues and Discussion.
