Mentoring
What is the value of mentoring?
Mentoring gives a young person the surety that there is someone who cares about them. They know they are not alone in the challenges that they face.
They have a friend who, as a youth once themselves, has experienced much of what they are now facing and who is willing to guide and help.
What Mentors Do:
- Provide stability
- Help keep the student in school and regularly attending
- Help with homework (thus improving the student’s academic skills.)
- Improve the mentee’s self-esteem and self-worth
- Guide the student toward an appropriate career choice and teach them how to seek - and keep - a job
- Be there to listen and give guidance and love
Mentors do not replace parents, guardians or teachers. They do not make decisions for the youth. Mentors help define goals for the youth and help them find ways to achieve those goals. This should be a flexible relationship that responds to both the mentor’s and youth’s needs.
