Become
a Mentee
A mentee is
a high school student aging from 14 years old until they graduate
from high school. The mentee is paired with a mentor that they speak
to on a weekly basis.
The student
attends a monthly meeting where they discuss issues that are facing
today’s youth. Mentee's are placed in a job or pre-apprenticeship
where they are paid a living wage for their work.
Therefore, in
order to be involved in the program, the student must have working
papers. The mentee will learn skills that help them obtain a better
future and are given help to gain a higher education or jog training
skills.
