Be a Mentor

Studies have shown that resilient children—those kids who can bounce back from trauma, challenges and upsets—have positive adult relationships and strong connections to the community. One way to help a child succeed is to be a mentor. Children with mentors are more likely to be hopeful about the future, set goals for themselves, graduate from high school and enroll in college. They are also more likely to avoid risky behaviors such as using drugs or alcohol, skipping class or engaging in violence. If you’ve been thinking about becoming a mentor, now is the time. January is National Mentoring Month. For information about Sweetser’s mentoring program, please see us online at www.sweetser.org
