WELCOME
TO YOUTH GUIDANCE!
Youth Guidance was founded in 1977 with the purpose
of guiding youth who are experiencing problems at home, at school or with the
law and youth who have little or no relational or emotional support.
Youth Guidance matches youth at risk with mature Christian volunteers
in a one-on-one mentorship program. The program aims to foster growth emotionally,
socially, physically and spiritually through the difficult years of adolescence
by offering each young person a mentorship commitment.
Youth Guidance
volunteers meet weekly one-on-one with youth. Volunteers are also are given the
opportunity to participate in a large group event once a month and take part in
building meetings four times a year.
Mature, Christian volunteers are
recruited, screened and given ongoing training and program supervision. Youth
and volunteers are matched according to gender, interest, personality and location. |

| If
you can set aside a few hours a week for
an important young person, then
working
with Youth Guidance is for you!
We urge potential volunteers
to get involved, because there is always a young person in need of a new friend! |
