    A mentor is an adult who, along with parents, provides young people with support, friendship, reinforcement and constructive example. Mentors are good listeners, people who care, and want to help young people develop existing strengths.
     
    How do you become a mentor? Becoming a mentor requires attending one two-hour training session, completing an application and a background check. Becoming a mentor also involves committing to spending 30 minutes per week during school hours with a student for the school year and hopefully the following year. We need individuals from all across the community to be involved in our mentoring program.
     

    Unable to attend a training?  Would you like to have a training during the day or at your organization or worksite?  No problem - Mentor training is available upon request for groups of 10 or more.
