Mentoring Programs
Mentors are always needed….Mentors make a difference! Mentoring is a relationship in which a mentor and a mentee meet on an on-going basis to help the mentee develop his/her life skills. The focus may be on career exploration, personal growth goals, or gaining perspective on good citizenship. Being in a mentoring relationship is a great development opportunity for both mentors and mentees.
Description
Mentoring programs across KMAland vary to some degree, with local goals and initiatives administered and developed to meet the ever-changing needs of the communities being served. Bottom-line, mentoring strengthens the youth of our communities.
