School Mentors

Matching Students and Purposeful Adults

School Mentors nurture trusting, intergenerational relationships between students and mentors that cultivate life and vocational skills necessary to thrive. We create a safe space for a small group mentoring experience for up to 36 weeks that combines regular meals, topical conversations, recreation and outings, and one-on-one communication.
