Become A Mentor

Mentoring is a relationship that brings young people together with caring adults, of all ages, to offer guidance, support and encouragement.

Researchers have found that not only does mentoring improve self-esteem but can help a child:

• Improve his/ her attitude towards their parents, peers and teachers.
• Become less likely to initiate illegal drug use.
• Stay motivated and focused on their education.
• Become less likely to skip school.
• Find positive ways to spend free time.
• Be less likely to begin using alcohol.
• Face daily challenges and gain proper decision making skills.
• Be less likely to hit someone or fight at school.
