Celebrate National Mentoring Month with Youth Success Mentoring

You can be the reason a young person feels seen, heard, and believed in, maybe even for the first time. That’s the power of connection. That’s the power of Youth Success Mentoring. 

By meeting 1-1 with a student in the Riverview or Snoqualmie Valley Districts just once a week for up to one hour, together we are building a network of prevention, support, and safety for hundreds of youth across the valley. 

Mentors show up with encouragement, build confidence in both themselves and their mentee, and actively contribute to building a a better community through connection, care and belonging. The best part? Anyone can be a mentor.
