January is National Mentoring Month. A mentor guarantees young people that there is someone who cares about them, assures them they are not alone in dealing with day-to-day challenges, and makes them feel like they matter. You can download the National Mentoring Partnership’s Toolkit, and view our Mentoring Resource Guide.  Our partners at MENTOR Maryland | DC and Mentor National offer these resources to support your program, learn about key topics and  find trainings.
