Description

Provides mentoring for youth in a one-on-one setting most days throughout the year. The purpose of "one-to-ones" is for the teen to develop a positive relationship with an adult who genuinely cares about him or her and who can provide personal support in dealing with life's pressures.

Surveys show that youth who experienced stronger levels of developmental relationships with mentors also had 26% higher social and emotional competence scores.
