THE ROLE OF A MOMMY MENTOR
The young people of today must cope with far more personal and social pressures than any other previous generation of youth. Early intervention through a structured mentor relationship may be able to give young people the tools and support they need to deal effectively with these pressures. Understanding the many social, psychological, and physical demands that the youth face is extremely important for any individual about to undertake the task of being a mommy mentor.
Mentors’ roles fall into five categories:
Providing prenatal and postpartum educational pregnancy mentoring support
Providing academic help and tutoring
Providing career exploration assistance
Providing emotional support
Providing social experiences
Mommy mentors must be willing to meet twice a week with their mentees with one of those meetings being an in person cohort group mentoring held weekly. Mentors must complete mandatory training and be able to pass a level 2 background check. Click the link below to become a mentor.
