Volunteer mentors will meet face-to-face with their mentee at least weekly and attend a group meeting at least once per month. Mentors will be asked to commit to one year of participation after assignment and will receive ongoing support from the program coordinator. Mentors will meet with the mentees to ensure they have the tools and resources to be successful in life. Those resources may include tutoring, referral to counseling, and navigation of social and family support resources.
The mentor agrees to participate and cooperate in the program for at least six to nine months preferably for the year.
