Youth Advocacy (Mentoring)
January
is
National Mentoring Month

Mentoring is the single most effective way to positively impact a child’s life. We currently have a list of children waiting to be matched with a fun, caring adult. 

Volunteer mentors at The Bridge are called Youth Advocates. They commit to a one-year relationship with a child that includes weekly get-togethers, monthly meetings with other advocates, and the screening and training it takes to get started. 

Do you know a boy or girl between the ages of 7 and 15 who needs a mentor? 

Do you know an adult who has the interest and compassion it takes to be a mentor?

Youth Advocacy Update

On Wednesday, August 23, 2006, The Bridge's Youth Advocacy mentoring program
descended upon Congo River miniature golf course in Hoffman Estates.  Nine
children were treated to a challenging course that included water hazards and
totem poles.  Many holes-in-one were accomplished, even some e the mentors.  Smiling faces were seen throughout the evening.
