Mentors will expose youth in 11th & 12th grade to a wide variety of college and career opportunities through hands-on workshops and activities. Mentors will also provide academic support through tutoring as well as developing a relationship with young people that will impact their lives positively. Mentors will be matched 1:1 with a young person based on their field of interest after high school and if that aligns with your field of work or study. Mentors working with high school seniors will be matched 1-1 to support them through the entire college application process. This can include researching college or other postsecondary programs, completing the common application, drafting essays, applying for scholarships, and more.

Time Commitment: school year, at least one mentoring meeting per month for one to two hours

Mondays, 5:15-6:30 PM (mentoring, in person)
