Mentors<\/strong> at Stay Focused are what make our Reach 4 Greatness program so special and unique. Future mentors are evaluated through an application process as well as an initial orientation to the R4G program; we then conduct background research and communicate with provided references.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.6.5″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.7.4″ _module_preset=”default”]<\/p>\n

When this process is finished, we train future mentors to be able to provide social and emotional support to their mentee. Mentors are then matched with a mentee based on their strengths, abilities, experiences, and personalities. Mentors must devote one hour or more per week to their mentee to establish and maintain a trusting foundation as well as a lasting friendship.<\/p>\n
