Are you interested in making a positive impact in the life of a youth, but you're worried it will take too much time or you won't know what to do with the student?
Goodwill's Careers Plus Mentoring program matches mentors with 3-5 students. Students and mentors meet for a little under an hour a week as part of the student's regularily scheduled class. A Goodwill teacher presents a very brief lesson on a topic related to college or careers follwed by an activity that mentors and students complete together.
