The Effects of Mentoring MENTOR, the National Mentoring Partnership, recently put together a letter to send in support of national funding for mentoring programs. Here are a few of the lines from that inspiring letter: “Mentoring serves as one of the few prevention strategies that can effectively address multiple risk and protective factors simultaneously.” “Youth mentoring programs… have the ability to prevent and help youth cope with depressive symptoms.” “Having a mentor has also been found to be associated with life satisfaction and positive well-being in adulthood.” “Fostering a sense of belonging and forging a sense of personal identity were among the most meaningful forms of support offered by mentors.”
