Building Futures Mentoring Program

December 27, 2010

YMCA of San Francisco

Do you want to make a difference in a young person's life?

Be a Y Mentor, Change 2 Lives

January is National Mentor Month and the YMCA of San Francisco is calling out to all members to mentor a deserving youth in 2011.

If you had a special person in your life that guided, nurtured, supported and taught you that you mattered, you had a mentor! Now it's your turn!

Building Futures is unique from other mentoring programs as it provides a 21-hour paraprofessional training to all mentors before matching, preparing them to work successfully with at-risk youth by developing relationship-building skills, exploring issues facing at-risk youth, and strategies to handle difficult situations. Thorough ongoing support is provided by the coordinator who is a Marriage and Family Therapist Intern.

We hope you will consider being a mentor!
