The program matches children ages 6 to 18 with local adults. The focus of the CAL Mentor program is prevention - the adult mentors provide a positive role model to help the children avoid gangs, drugs and teen pregnancy. The mentors meet with their child at least once a week and do a range of activities. The mentor may choose to help the child with his homework or participate in more social activities. Some mentors take their mentees out to lunch or to the movies.
Mentors can choose for themselves how they wish to develop their relationships with their mentees.
