BBBS Focused Mentoring program matches an adult mentor with 2-3 young people in a specialized program, based on interest. Examples of programs to be run this year include Visual Arts, Fitness and Sports, Multi-sensory, PRISM (Pride, Respect, Identity, Safety, Mentoring), Swimming, etc. Mentors and mentees build relationships based on similar interests, and the mentor becomes a role model and champion for the young person. Programs run for 8 weeks at a time, and mentors are expected to commit to the entirety of the program. Sessions run in the Fall, Winter, and Spring sessions. Schedule varies based on the season. Mentors are invited to indicate their specific interest when applying for this program.
