WELCOME TO GUILFORD YOUTH MENTORING



"A mentor is not someone who walks ahead of you to show you how they did it.  A mentor walks alongside you to show you what you can do."
A mentor literally means "a wise and trusted friend."  Mentors are caring adults who build a relationship with a child which affirms that child's worth and importance.  Through the mentoring relationship children improve in self-confidence, feel safe and secure, feel they have more people who care about them and that they have more options for the future.  To learn more click on Become A Mentor in the navigation bar to the left.
