...MENTOR Celebrates National Mentoring Month
A Time to Amplify and Expand Mentoring Opportunities for the Nation's Young People
BOSTON - January 3, 2023 - (Newswire.com)
January is National Mentoring Month, a time for Americans to celebrate the power of relationships, drive meaningful change, and expand quality mentoring opportunities for the nation's youth.
One in three young people are growing up in the U.S. without a mentor, and over the past few years, this gap has persisted as the nation is building back after COVID-19. Without mentors in their lives, the unprecedented challenges young people experience — including a national emergency in children's mental health — are only exacerbated. It is the responsibility of adults to respond with urgency and become a mentor.
MENTOR Chief Impact Officer Tim Wills says, "As we build back from a pandemic that disconnected so many of our young people from important relationships in schools and their communities, we have a keen awareness of the power of mentoring to help youth form identities, feel seen and heard, and forge their own paths to success. National Mentoring Month is our call to action for caring adults in our nation to step up and become a mentor to ensure every young person has someone they can call on."
MENTOR's research shows that when young people have a mentor, they are 75% more likely to say they held a leadership position in a club or sports team and 92% more likely to volunteer regularly in their communities. Adults who were mentored as youths are more than twice as likely to serve as mentors themselves because they know the power of these relationships.
This National Mentoring Month, MENTOR and the mentoring movement are encouraging adults to volunteer as mentors. To find a local program, go to the Mentoring Connector, the only national database of mentoring programs. Take action and join the growing mentoring movement today.

"Our Rolling Meadows location will serve the needs of a unique group-those who are used to commuting to the city but who are looking for inspiring and productive space closer to home. Somewhere with the customization and comfort of their home or corporate office, but in a polished, distraction-free setting with like-minded professionals nearby, and with access to amenities they might not normally have at their fingertips: Zoom-tech meeting rooms, bespoke office space for the day, sit-stand desks to claim for the week or the year, coffee and gourmet food options steps away from their desk, and more. A place tailored to support their best workday, whether that requires quiet, heads-down space for solo projects, collaboration space to meet with one or 20, or just the knowledge that others are working nearby, passionate about the same thing."
