Youth Connect: Mentors & Advisors Page

Youth Connect Peer Leaders thrive with the assistance of adult volunteers that serve as mentors and advisors to the youth leaders. Mentors aim to provide guidance, advice, feedback, training, and support to Peer Leaders as their chosen track develops service projects. Youth Connect Advisors support the students with content-specific advice and direction. Youth Connect Advisors are experts in relevant topics that lend their knowledge and expertise to Peer Leaders. Being a Youth Connect adult Mentor is more of a time commitment than the role of Advisor. Please see below for specific responsibilities.
