Chairman of Just Believe Training, Jamon Turner, sits down with Jeffrey Goodman, Director of Marketing and Development for the YMCA of Northwest Louisiana, to answer the following questions:
0:33 1. I know you do a lot of different things. Let’s start here today. You once said the following:
“We’re a youth program. We host these really wild camps where kids get to kick loose, meet new friends. You know, city kids, country kids merging, learning about each other.
See, we’re kinda like the superhero of camps. We learn about agricultural trades, horses, cattle. All sorts of that fun stuff, you know. We don’t just do western stuff. We go hiking, camping, fishing, kayaking. Pretty much anything outdoors. See we’re the middle man for the kids who can’t. Who don’t have access to these opportunities. We find them, we plug ‘em in, we take ‘em.”
Tell me about the camp described above and then we’ll get into some of the other programs Just Believe offers.
2:30 2. Your nonprofit, Just Believe, provides hands-on equine and agricultural education programs along with trade introduction for youth. Tell me how it started.
6:25 3. You once said the following,
“It takes $49,000 to keep a kid incarcerated all year long. You can literally run 32 kids through my program at that for 10 weeks.”
Talk to me a little about the quote above and perhaps some of the rehabilitative aspects of your programs.
12:20 4. Tell me about some of the other programs offered by Just Believe.\
15:41 5. There are so many people you've impacted through the years. Give me a story of one kid who has gone through your program, who they were and who they became.
24:10 6. I asked my guests last week this and I wanted to ask you:
Will you share a story of a preconception you had or a gap in understanding or awareness that you had that has been changed because of all your time working with Just Believe?
28:02 7. How do you see an equine program being beneficial to the community?
