SMOA recognizes that time is perhaps, the most valuable commodity in life. Especially when it is shared with those who are underserved. That is precious.
            SMOA recognizes that in an ever increasing, hypercompetitive world, the need for today's youth to work very hard, to maintain whatever socio-economic standing they have, or hope to achieve, requires very judicious use of their extracurricular time. This is a very scarce commodity indeed.
            Therefore, SMOA's activities work around SMATONs and SMOA leaderships' time challenges, by not restricting activities to a particular schedule or routine. This enables each DPSL to coordinate efforts to a process that works for them in their particular setting.
            This means that service is very flexible and availability of their personnel is what drives the engagements. Practically, if a SMATON raises the issue of music lessons for example, with the goal being a concert, after ascertaining the needs of the serviced youth, the first question is: what is the SMATON's availability? Based on that, SMOA takes the next steps.
            This extreme time flexibility of all engagements means that the likelihood that the service will be accomplished is significant.
            Unlike time structured extracurricular activities, the diversified nature of SMOA and community-centric/focused service approach, combined with extreme time flexibility, all result in greater engagement with the serviced youth- without sacrificing the effort.
            Many extracurricular activities have time-restrictions imposed: if you cannot attend so many meetings, in certain time windows, then, it will not work. One cannot advance or otherwise be viewed as an active participant.
            With SMOA, it is entirely flexible. What we are after is: maximal accommodation, because we know SMATONs are hugely busy.
