Hampden County Mentoring
Giving time and attention to a young person brings positive outcomes for youth and incredible satisfaction to their mentors! By mentoring, you can help a young person through their next phase in life and help them with both their successes and challenges.
Perhaps you’d like to become a mentor or you’re looking for someone to mentor your young person. Maybe your life brought challenges and experiences you had to learn how to overcome and now you’d like to pay it forward with youth from your community. Consider the growing trend of
peer group mentoring and mentor a small group of youth through programs offered at your
local youth serving organizations. Or volunteer to be a traditional
1-on-1 mentor. All forms of mentoring are encouraged and will improve the life of a young person!
