Deaf Teen Connect Ministry Association is a collaboration between Deaf Missions and DeafYouth Ministries with a focus on church-based ministries. Only members may use the name Deaf Teen Connect (DTConnect®) although use of this identity is not a requirement. Membership provides a number of ministry benefits and involves a commitment made by members to ministry excellence. DTConnect Ministry Association members agree to: 1) Keep current background checks on all volunteers and staff who are in direct contact with teenagers; oversee adult interactions and contact with young people to optimize their safety. 2) Attend at least one local, regional or national training event on youth and/or deaf ministry each year. 3) Commit to a cultural approach to ministry that welcomes students of any communication preference. 4) Commit to acquiring and using current and effective resources for ministry with Deaf teens. 5) Join the National Network of Youth Ministries (free membership) which provides a connection with general youth ministry resources. 6) Keep association membership current with an annual membership fee and agree to relinquish program identification as a Deaf Teen Connect associated ministry, if membership is canceled or revoked.
