ORGANIZATION: Trusted Mentors

  • 34 people are interested

You could be that person who helps someone aging out of foster care, coming off the streets, or exiting our criminal justice system; just like someone was there for you. Mentors help reduce a person's sense of isolation and can be guide when times are hard. When these powerful relationships are formed, people stay housed, keep jobs, go to school, and stay out of jail. We train you and specially match you up with a mentee. Afterwards, the two of you will spend six hours a month together for a year. There will be events and fundraisers for the pairs to attend; which will include opportunities for you to network with like minded cohorts.

Please watch this informational video at https://vimeo.com/111005408 and visit our website at www.trustedmentors.org for more details. If you are interested in training please contact us at info@trustedmentors.org or call us at(317)985-5041.

Support. Stabilize. Succeed.

Mission Statement

Trusted Mentors connects trained volunteer mentors with at risk adults to help more people stay housed and out of prison.

Description

Trusted Mentors connects trained, volunteer mentors with at risk adults to help more people stay housed and out of prison. We accomplish our mission by:

  • Providing quality training to equip volunteers with the resources and techniques needed to be effective mentors;
  • Matching adults referred by partnering agencies with trained mentors; and
  • Fostering on-going mentoring relationships by supplying useful information, guidance, and positive activities.
Trusted Mentors is recognized as the leading provider of mentoring relationships that empower at-risk adults to remain housed and avoid incarceration.

Mentors come from all walks of life. Whether you are a business professional or formerly homeless, your knowledge and life experiences can help one of our mentees make the positive changes they desire for a more successful future.

We partner with multiple agencies throughout Indianapolis, but we don’t duplicate services. The agencies maintain the case management - and we do what we do best, provide the mentors. Referring agencies utilize Trusted Mentors because it is an effective and professional organization.

We mentor change - and it matters.
