BBBS mentoring establishes a consistent, supportive relationship between a young person and an adult mentor(s). It also allows development of stronger social connections that create a sense of belonging while empowering youth to be leaders and advocates for diversity and inclusion. Youth feel empowered, more confident and develop resiliency.
“I liked that my daughter got to hangout with positive role models from the Black community and talk about things like food, hair care and Black history with others who understand our unique experiences. There was a good balance of fun and education. The Black community is relatively small where we live, so these opportunities are important.” – Parent Testimonial
