Community-Based Mentoring: Adults and children are paired in one-to-one mentoring relationships and participate in a variety of activities out in the community. As a traditional Big Brother or Big Sister, you will meet with your Little Brother or Sister for 6-12 hours a month in the community.
School-Based Mentoring: Children are matched with adults or high school students who meet with them at a set time every week in their school, work on homework, visit the library, play outside — or enjoy lunch together!
