Mission Statement
The mission of the Empowering Youth Mentor Program is to empower at-risk youth in our community to make positive life choices that enable them to maximize their personal potential.
Description
After running a mentor program for youth on community supervision in the juvenile justice system, that ended after serving for 17 years, I started the Empowering Youth Mentor Program (EYMP). EYMP is a community-based, one-to-one program that works with youth in Kitsap County. The majority of youth served have experienced significant trauma. Mentors who work with EYMP are trained to be trauma-informed and responsive.
