This program is a supportive, structured, relationship-centered experience for your teen. To get started, please complete the Mentee/Parent Registration Form below. After you register, expect clear communication about program details, including a required virtual orientation planned for Thursday, Apr 23, 2026, where we will review what to expect, answer questions, and share next steps.
If you want to show up for a teen who's building confidence, identity, and leadership, we'd love to have you. Mentors offer steady, consistent connection through one 15-minute check-in call per month, per mentee. You'll provide encouragement and accountability, not therapy. Each mentor supports one or two mentees over six months, with a minimum of six calls per mentee.
Complete the Mentor Sign-Up Form to let us know you are interested, and we will follow up with next steps.
