My Name is Katie Martinez , the Mentor Coordinator for Project H.O.P.E. (H arnessing O ptimism and P otential through E ducation/E mployment).
In order for the formally incarcerated to re-acclimate with society, there must be a transitional phase of adjusting. In order to adjust one must have a positive network or a mentor. Many of the formally incarcerated don’t have positive networks nor family based opportunities for reconstruction of relationships, therefore mentors are desperately needed to help guide the formally incarcerated through adjusting phases in life and challenges they will face on a daily basis.
At this present time I am seeking qualified and eligible professionals who have the desire to make change in their communities. Mentors will contact Mentees on a weekly basis by phone, text, email or in person. Mentors will also have the oppotunity to attend monthly gatherings that vary from group meetings, workshops, golf days, etc.

Description
The George Gervin Youth Center is not just for youth; it is a resource for the entire community. From a pre-K through high school academic academy to retirement housing for those age 62 and older, there is something for everyone within our walls.
At GGYC, we recognize the need for a safe, friendly environment where children can receive a quality education as well as find extra-curricular and educational activities that keep them off the street. Likewise, it can be a challenge for retired community members to find affordable housing and volunteer opportunities close to home. We address both of these concerns with our varied programs that we offer to the community of San Antonio.
