The Trusted Mentor Difference
Trusted Mentors takes a one-on-one approach to helping those in need. It takes time, commitment, and can be extremely rewarding. People sometimes wonder what our mentees can gain from a mentor. Some common answers we hear are: Mentors help establish a network of reliable people, and Mentors help develop methods to prevent living in crisis. These past few years, mentors have helped bridge the digital divide by helping navigate services via the internet. Can you help another person do that? Then you can be a mentor!
Additional perks are that you and your mentee will be invited to fun events ranging from sporting events, festivals, and various fundraisers. Additionally, you will meet other mentors like yourself at meetings for mentors, fundraisers, sporting outings, or celebrations of our mentee's recent achievements.

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.
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.CAUSE AREAS
