Youth Mentorship Program

The Youth Mentorship Program matches youth participants between the ages of 15-18 years old with volunteer mentors. The goal of this program is to help youth gain the skills needed as they transition into adulthood in order to lead a healthy, productive, and fulfilling life full of new opportunities. Youth participants and mentors will meet for a minimum of one hour per week for a period of one year. Activities are decided and agreed upon by the mentee and mentor and can range from cooking to sports, eating to hiking, art to board games, events to exhibits, community activities and more. Timms Community Centre will be available for use, but activities do not have to be limited to the facility. Are you 15-18 years old, and looking for some extra connection and guidance? The Youth Mentorship Program is here to match up teenagers with adult mentors. Mentoring is a relationship between two people where the individual with more experience, knowledge, and connections provides advice, friendship, and opportunity to a younger less experienced individual. Mentors can be anyone from parents to teachers to coaches to just regular people in your lives. Mentors help young people navigate their lives, learn new skills, develop confidence and more.
