Preparation

One of the important concepts of the JITLI program is that it consists of much more than the traveling period during the summer. Before and after the trip, participants are required to attend a number of meetings that include educational and personal enrichment activities, phone and video-conferencing between all groups, joint social action projects, and involvement in each of the participant's respective community by taking part in events, speaking at schools, and traveling throughout the county giving presentations to various community groups. As previously discussed, graduates also serve as the primary recruiters for future participants and take part in the application and interview process.
