Great Life Mentoring is celebrating 20 years of enriching the lives of children and mentors! You won't find another mentoring opportunity like this one. Hear directly from the mentors and kids themselves in our one-minute match videos at https://greatlifementoring.com/2020
Children between the ages of 7-18 and facing adverse circumstances. Our kids have experienced trauma and have a deep need for a trustworthy adult to help them develop confidence in themselves and others. Great Life Mentoring is a Research-Based practice proven to work!
Right now we have an urgent need for new mentors from the Portland, OR and Vancouver, WA areas. We will work with you virtually until the pandemic is over, and then you will be ready to meet your new friend face to face. The application is online, the interview and training can be via video from your phone or computer. We want to make it easy for you to help a child who really needs you now.
As a Mentor in our program you will:
Get to choose the child you'd like to help
Be able to choose the day, time and place
Have fun with your friend 1-3 hours a week
Receive the training and support needed to help you be successful as a mentor
If this sounds like the opportunity you've been searching for, let us know you're ready to get started!
To mentor, select the "I want to Help" button above.
