Have you ever thought about mentoring a child whose parent is in prison? Spending consistent time with a child or youth can make a huge difference in their life, and in yours too. What the two of you do together is entirely up to you - you can play sports, watch movies, cook, just hang out, or do anything else you both enjoy. You and your mentee can also attend monthly events where you will get to know other mentors and mentees in the program.
Become a mentor through the CHIP Mentoring Program! We are looking for both female and male mentors. Contact us for an application or visit us on facebook (https://www.facebook.com/CHIPMentoringProgram) for more info.
