1:1 MENTORING
Many youth desperately need the investment of a caring adult. 1:1 Mentoring fosters happiness and success, increasing achievement through positive relationships. With 60% of students facing adverse experiences, many lack social skills.
Our vision is for all Chelan Valley students to have a mentor. We have over 50 mentor/mentee matches, thanks to our supportive community.
