This organization accepted my 14 year old daughter who was showing signs of depression, and had grades of C and lower. Since she has been with them, she has become outgoing, and is earning A's in school. She decided to stay in the Girl Scouts and has begun taking an interest in the younger girls at school. They run to her when they see her in the hallway. I could not reach her before. Now, we spend days together that are happy and peaceful. I would recommend Student Mentor Partners for any child who is having troubles and is willing to work hard to overcome them.
