OUR IMPACT
1:1 MENTORTING REPORT 2022
2022 brought continued need for focus on mentor recruitment and assisting young people with progressing.
In preparation for 2023, we hired new staff and increased efficiency in our recruitment structure. We focused on short term and long-term efforts, particularly related to relationship retention, high school graduation, job readiness and E3 – Enrollment in college/trade school, Enlistment in the military, and/or gainfully Employed. GOOD NEWS: Our data supports our decisions – 97% of the youth we serve AVOIDED some of life’s riskiest behaviors.
"THE POWER OF MENTORING - both for mentor & mentee - is growing together & seeing the world through each other's eyes."
