More about programs
How she became a HY Worker:
Jitka used to hold the programs as a volunteer in the very beginning. Then she received a one-year government grant. When this grant had finished, Jitka joined the team of HY Workers of INCZ. Meantime, Jitka has become an experienced HY Worker who, in addition to other things, imparts her knowledge and skills to other co-workers. We are excited that Jitka enhances our team of HY Workers, and is working in an area where we haven’t had any workers until now.
Jitka even became the leading figure of Czech Christian National Pro-life Initiative, which has strong roots in evangelical Christianity.
Jitka draws in her listeners in a dynamic and caring way, and the programs are so unusually attractive and sought-after by schools that she can’t fit any more programs into her already-full schedule. After she has presented the two-hour program, she follows it up with a two-hour discussion at a later date. During the discussion, Jitka provides a chance for the listeners to speak about the lectured theme; she gives them time for personal sharing and questions, and has an opportunity to establish deeper relationships with them.
Program topics and resource:
Jitka works under the auspices of non-profit organization called National Pro-life Initiative. This organization is based on Christian foundations. It offers specific pro-life topics for higher classes of primary schools and for high schools and grammar schools. Jitka helped to develop all of offered topics.
They are:
My journey to this world (human prenatal development)
The adventure of adolescence
The unplanned pregnancy
Feedback
“Mrs. Kultova comes to our grammar school every year and her lectures are always conducted with corresponding expertise and with respect to the children’s age. Not only that the children listen attentively, but they also actively contribute to the discussion on the topic of the program. In this way, they do not just receive new information from biology, but they also learn to react sensitively to situations which may arise in relation to (unwanted) pregnancy.”
