All while having fun! Mentoring Sessions can include activities such as: academic support, sports skill development, arts and crafts, mindfulness training, nutrition guidance, navigating peer relations, reading, field trips, hikes, fishing, cooking etc. In addition to individualized one-on-one sessions the 1-2-1 Mentoring services include community building activities and continued support.
