Vision Mentoring's success is built on the growth of mentors & mentees. We are bridging the social gap between high school (mentors) and middle school students (mentees) to revitalize the schooling community. Vision plans to develop students' core values and personal constitutions through community outreach, mission-focused activities, and positive long-term relationship building. With mission-focused activities, students will consistently exercise the program's core values.
Vision Mentoring takes place directly within each school it partners with, ensuring that both mentors and mentees can build strong connections and a sense of community without the need for travel. By hosting sessions at the school, we create an accessible and seamless experience for all participants. The program runs every Thursday immediately after school, with light snacks provided for students.
