NATIONAL MENTORING MONTH
January is National Mentoring Month - an annual event that celebrates mentoring and the positive effect it can have on young lives.
This year the focus is on how we can all work together to increase the number of mentors to make sure young people in our communities have dependable people to look up to and follow in their footsteps.
Its goals are to:
Raise awareness of mentoring in its various forms.
Recruit individuals to mentor, especially in programs that have waiting lists of young people.
Promote the rapid growth of mentoring by recruiting organizations to engage their constituents in mentoring.
HOW TO OBSERVE
Look into a mentor program to see how it can benefit you – and how you can benefit it – and use #NationalMentoringMonth to post on social media. If you want to become an active advocate, click here for more details on what you can do to better your community this month.
