MentorThe mentoring program uses adult volunteers to commit to supporting, guiding, and being a friend to a young person for at least the duration of a program season. By becoming part of the social network of adults and community members who care about the youth, the mentor can help youth develop and reach positive academic, career, and personal goals. |
