Mentoring Programs
1
One on One & Group Mentoring
ONE ON ONE :
Mentors and their Mentee will be matched up together and the Mentor will be responsible for spending no more than 20 hours a month with their mentee. The mentor will be responsible for montoring their mentee's progress in school. Keep the lines of communication with both the parent and child.
GROUP:
There will not be more no more than six mentees per mentor in small-group mentoring situations. In a slight larger of 8 or more mentees we will add 3 more mentors. The program,will be a combination of one-on-one mentoring and participation in group activities provided more positive youth outcomes than youth who were not involved in mentoring relationships or only involved in group activities.
Incarceration Correspondence
As we all know having a parent incarcerated can be very devastating to a child. So therefore we will assist the child to write to their loved one to keep the communication going with the family and after it is complete we will mail the letter together.
Youth Incarcerated
Having a child in the system is also devastating to the parent and the family members . So while the youth is incarcerated we will assign them a mentor who is on the outside. Someone that will feed their soul and spirit with positive energy. So when the youth is finally released back into society he/she will already have a mentor established for them. This type of mentor ship is very important to the youth to help break the cycle of incarceration and teach them how to fish so they will be able to eat for a life time.

Computer Mentoring
Technology and the youth today is the hottest thing right now. Why not use it for our advantage and their point of contact. Our youth are so savvy with technology these days why not use it to benefit them in a positive way. If you have a youth no matter where ever they live they can have a mentor with a click of a button. We will inspire , encourage , and motivate our youth to do and be better. Even if they may have a problem they need help with they can have a mentor at their disposal.
Become A Mentor
We all know the importance of finding quality Men & Women who are willing to mentor a youth in the community. serve as our mentors. Our youth needs someone they can look up to, respect and who will guide them in the right and respectful manner. So we are in need a good and quality individuals who are willing to invest in our youth.
It's time to bring back that village because it does take a village to raise a child and we have many children who need you.
