Become a Mentor

Become a Mentor

Help shape someone's tomorrow. Become a mentor today.

Do you want to make a difference in the life of a young person? Are you caring, patient, flexible, and a good listener? Will you volunteer your time to be a mentor?

As a trained volunteer mentor you can spend quality time with a young person to improve their self-esteem, promote positive youth development, help them deal with day to day challenges, build social leadership and resiliency skills, identify educational and career interests, set goals, broaden horizons, participate in social activities, and have fun. Your involvement as a mentor can make a positive impact on the life of a young person.

LifeTies Mentoring services include individual support sessions, group mentoring, and peer activities led by mentors. Mentors are matched with mentees based on common interests and work together to set and reach goals. 

LifeTies Mentors are currently needed to support youth age 10-21 in the path to a safe and healthy future. You can provide the support a child needs.

  • be at least 21 years of age
