Youth Mentoring Connection (YMC) is partnering with Girls Club of Los Angeles (GCLA) for a 9-month mentoring program that meets every other Tuesday from 5:30 - 7:30. Volunteers will be matched with a high school student in a one-on-one relationship, in a safe community setting. Mentors will be expected to be trained and must undergo a background check.

We believe that when a caring adult mentor shows up for a young person in a consistent way, they change 2 lives. Our Gift Centered Approach allows for the healing to begin, as mentors walk in the path with their mentee together. We are only asking for 4 hours a month - you show up, and YMC takes care of the rest.

About Youth Mentoring Connection

Location:

8407 South Vermont Avenue, LOS ANGELES, CA 90006, US

Mission Statement

Youth Mentoring Connection awakens at-risk youth to their power, unique gifts and purpose by matching them with caring adult mentors and placing that "match" within a structured group dynamic that provides the resources youth need to reach productive, conscious adulthood. We further seek to awaken society to the needs, promise and value of this overlooked population. Our Vision is of a community where young people are truly seen and not just watched, where society understands and accepts its responsibility in meeting the needs of all young people, and where young people bring their gifts back into their communities as productive members of society.

YMC helps 350 marginalized LA youth annually through a community of mentors, staff, and other community organizations in which youth are empowered to create a future in which they thrive.
