Mentoring

Children

One-on-One Matches

JLSFRC’s Youth Mentoring Program pairs trained adults with youth who can benefit from weekly one-on-one time with a caring mentor and participation in 4-H clubs and activities. Whether it’s bike riding, baking cookies, or just talking, mentoring is a way for adults and kids alike to experience quality time together and make a positive difference in each other’s lives. Please contact us if you are interested in being a mentor, or if you have a child who might enjoy being a part of this special program!

Mentors undergo an application, interview and training process, while mentees also complete an application. This program is focused on promoting youth resiliency through relationship building and exposure to new and fun activities.
