The LifeLink Foster Care Mentoring Program is designed to create caring and structured relationships that bring young people together with role models. Mentors offer guidance, support, and encouragement aimed at developing the confidence and character of children. These intentional relationships are built upon trust and communication. Mentor relationships benefit youth from ages 8 to 18. Mentors spend 4 hours a week, or 16 hours a month, building meaningful relationships with youth. The LifeLink Mentoring Program supports youth while providing the space for children to develop their own sense of identity. Youth are exposed to cultural and educational opportunities, as well as career options to encourage and support their adjustment to adulthood.
