The Boys & Girls Clubs of Hawk-Houston invites you to become a mentor.
A mentor is someone who participates in a youth's life and shows that they care, can give the youth a different perspective of the world, and help create opportunities to enable the youth to make better life choices.
It's fun, it's flexible. It's making a difference!
Does Mentoring Really Work?
A study by an independent research firm concluded that matched "mentees" were:
· 46% less likely to initiate drug use
· 27% less likely to initiate alcohol use
· likely to have better relationships with peers and adults
· likely to skip half as many school days
· 33% less likely to engage in violence
