have you ever considered becoming a mentor? what has held you back?

I am sure many of us can look back over the course of our lives and identify several milestones that shaped who we are today.  When you think about these milestones think about the adults that were there: a parent, a coach, a teacher, a trusted friend. Now imagine navigating those milestones without them: high school, college, the transition to adulthood.  Scary huh?  This is often the reality for young people in foster care.
 
If you have ever considered becoming mentor, what has held you back?   You don’t need any special skills, it doesn’t cost you anything or take much time.  You just need to be you!  There are countless young people who have aged out of foster care in our community that need that connection, that support, that one person that believes in them.  

So are you ready? Give us a call, we would love to help connect you with that young person.  Mentoring relationships are a shared opportunity for learning and growth. Many of our mentors feel that they have gained more from the relationship than they ever imagined.  #MentoringMonth
