Youth Mentoring!

Flexible Schedule | Phoenix, AZ 85004

Nearly 3,000 children in the U.S. lose a parent to intimate partner homicide. The ARIZONA CHILD & ADOLESCENT SURVIVOR INITIATIVE (ACASI) is a first-of-its kind initiative that provides support to this underserved group of children. ACASI is seeking volunteer mentors to serve as reliable and positive role models, who can help them with the healing process. Research shows that a stable relationship with a caring, consistent adult serves as a protective factor, helps build resiliency and predicts better outcomes for at-risk children and children who have experienced domestic violence.

Mentoring Youth

Flexible Schedule | Yuma, AZ 85364

The children and youth ACASI supports are unique in that they have all experienced loss of a parent due to an Intimate Partner Homicide (IPH). Matching some of these children with volunteer mentors or tutors is one of the ways we hope to help them through the healing process. The primary goals for mentors are to be engaged and committed to mentees, helping them build self-confidence, navigate life optimistically, learn and have fun. The typical ACASI volunteer need is for one-to-one mentoring, yet ACASI offers other volunteer opportunities.
