Community Action Partnership for Madison County is looking for caring adults in the community to give an hour a week to a local child in need of a positive adult role model in their life. In as little as an hour a week, you can bring so many positive opportunities to a child in your community just by sharing your hobbies, talents and most importantly, your time!
You will have the ongoing support of the Mentoring Program here at Community Action Partnership during your time with the child. The Mentoring Program has been providing this service in Madison County since 2003.
If you have an hour and think you might be interested or just want to learn more, please give us a call!
