Give
your child the gift of a mentor — and a new friend.
When
people think of mentoring, they think of Big Brothers Big Sisters.
That’s because for more than 100 years we’ve worked
to develop a youth mentoring program that works. Our experienced
approach to recruiting, screening, matching and supporting our
mentoring relationships has resulted in thousands of lasting relationships,
and helped change the lives of young people across the country.
Our
Impact.
Kids
matched with a Big Brother or Big Sister:
-
Are more confident
-
Are more likely
to steer clear of drugs and alcohol
-
Do better in
school
-
Get along better
with their family and friends
-
Feel better about
themselves
Parents
are our Partners.
We
work closely with you. Your input is important. Not only do you
provide information about your child’s strengths and needs,
but you approve the selection of the Big Brother or Big Sister.
Once the match is made, parents remain closely involved in several
key ways.
Being
a Little is good safe fun.
We
understand you wouldn’t trust your child with just anyone.
That’s why you’ll be glad to know that every Big Brother
and Big Sister has a thorough background check and every match
is regularly reviewed by a professional Match Support Specialist.
Contact
us to include a child. Include your name, address, telephone
and email with the name of the child to enroll.
