CRITICAL NEED FOR MENTORS

Youth Connections Inc’s., Soaring Towards Excellence Program (STEP I) is a 501(c)(3) Mentoring Program whose focus is to match positive mentors to mentees that are coping with having an incarcerated parent.  We have a critical need for mentors. 

We feel that it is our mission to break the cycle of behaviors and actions that lead to incarceration.  We need caring mentors who are willing to show these children that there is another road they can choose. 

For more information or to take action and participate, contact the STEP I office in Atlanta by calling Deirdre Reynolds at 404.474.7479 or by emailing dreynolds@youth-connect.net. 

Become a Mentor and Change the life of a Child.
