Mentoring
Sistah's Keepers for females ages 14 to 21
Our mandatory mentoring programs are designed for personal growth and are available on a weekly time schedule.
Mentors are recruited and undergo a security and clearance check.
Mentoring happens at no more than a 1/3 ratio
(1 mentor to 3 youth)
Young adult mentors, ages 19 to 21, are developed to become mentors as a part of SHORE's "Reaching Back" program.
The Director has designed this program to challenge our youth in the areas of faith, education, technology, relationships, sexuality, health and fitness, diversity, job skills training, career placement, entrepeneurship and others.
Youth also enjoy access to a safe and private environment with weekly activities, field trips, yearly retreats, gatherings and other fun community activities.
Service Hours
All youth involved in the project must complete twenty five (25) hours of service in the community.
Youth serve the community by keeping the community clean and assisting local business owners with small task, all under the supervision of an approved (Act 33 & 34 clearances) and appointed community leader.
Job Referrals and Support
Although, positions are not guaranteed, our Community Human Resource Recruiter (CHRR) is committed to networking and seeking businesses in the community that will make a committment to hire our youth. If an employment position is found through The SHORE Project, we are committed to stand behind the youth of the program by following up with their employer. Our youth will continue to have access to our program site, the CHRR and their personal mentor.
