Welcome to Vida Joven!

Young Life, or Vida Joven in Spanish, began in the Dominican Republic in 1986.  Currently the ministry is being carried out by 17 Latin American staff, 7 North American staff, and over 100 volunteer leaders reaching over 500 teens each week in:
  • 14 barrios in Santo Domingo, Santiago, La Vega, and Jarabacoa
  • 1 International School in Santiago (Young Life & Wyld Life)
  • Through Capernum, Young Life's ministry for kids with disabilites in Santiago

In addition, Vida Joven has built an amazing camp called Pico Escondido in the breathtaking mountains of Jarabacoa.  This summer Pico Escondido hosted three weeks of outreach camps, in which 140 kids and 28 leaders attended.  Over half of these kids made first time commitments to Christ.

The Exposure Adventure Program is another aspect of Vida Joven in the Dominican Republic.  This program provides leaders and kids the opportunity to hear the Gospel and grow in their faith in an environment that is conducive to spiritual growth.
