The Mentoring Gap

Mentoring Matters

Despite the beneficial effects of formal mentoring programs, only 2.5 million (5%) of youth between the ages of 6 - 17 have a mentor. All young people deserve quality mentoring relationships that will allow them to have a shot at realizing their full potential. We cannot leave this to chance.
