1 in 3 young people will grow up without a mentor.

Mentoring, at its core, guarantees young people that there is someone who cares about them, assures them they are not alone in dealing with day-to-day challenges and makes them feel like they matter.

Research confirms that quality mentoring relationships have powerful positive effects on young people in a variety of personal, academic and professional situations.

Ultimately, mentoring connects a young person to personal growth and development and social & economic opportunity.

You can stay up to date on new resources, opportunities to advocate, national initiatives, and news about youth mentoring by signing up for our newsletters to stay connected.
