Visions and Pathways is looking for a few good men to serve as mentors for the Journey to Manhood mentoring program.
The mission of Journey to Manhood is to cultivate the growth of at-risk male youth ages 14 to 21 by matching them with caring adult male mentors in a structured group setting. The goal of the mentorship program is to help residential and non-residential clients of Somerset Home develop leadership skills, learn effective communication, interpersonal, and decision-making skills; maintain healthy relationships; and foster positive self-esteem, identity, and personal vision.
The recruitment process for Journey to Manhood is open to the general public through an application process. Prospective mentors who are at least 25 years of age are invited to participate in a screening process. Each mentorship program session runs for six-months and meets biweekly at Somerset Home, with additional opportunities for mentors and mentees to take part in other activities such as community engagement, recreation, and service projects.
