The Mentoring Program connects youth with experienced and caring men and women who encourage positive choices and healthy social interactions. This will help lay the proper foundation for adulthood and enable youth to become successful and productive members of society.
Renaissance Mentoring is the new brand for the Memphis PAL mentoring program that has been retooled to assist in molding our youth into young ladies and gentlemen equipped with a blueprint for future success. To do that, mentors of all ages and varied backgrounds are needed. Mentors will be responsible for helping in the rebirth of mentees through knowledge attainment, etiquette, confidence and character building; each of these traits will contribute to a lifetime of success and are acquired in a fun, safe and exploratory environment.
Mentors are required to complete an application, consent to a background check, and must be able to commit to a minimum of 8 hours a month for 12-18 months. Mentors are responsible for monitoring the well-being of the youth by providing guidance and developing life skills, giving love, attention, and encouragement, and helping to ensure they are healthy and safe.
