connections: Mentoring program for Youth
Mission Statement:
Building HOPE through community “CONNECTIONS”
Program Description:
The “CONNECTIONS” mentoring program is designed to build confidence in youth and instill hope for the future. Based on Search Institute’s 40 Developmental Assets, youth are encouraged to build assets into their life that are proven to increase their rate of success and sense of worth. Exposure to various educational, vocational and wellness programs is an integral part of “CONNECTIONS” youth mentoring program. Community service is also a vital part of “CONNECTIONS”. As youth are encouraged to engage in service to others, they will see themselves as an important part of the community. This program will create career “CONNECTIONS” with community partners through career fairs, informational forums and mentoring relationships. Opportunities to explore different career paths will give youth the information they need to make positive steps into a career path that is aligned to their interests. Youth are encouraged to thrive socially, emotionally as well as physically through community programming linked to a personal mentor. The “CONNECTIONS” program is designed to connect youth with positive individuals, agencies and programs in the county that will instill hope and create a sense of belonging.
