You can be a hero, you can be a Windsor County Partners mentor. Youth who connect one-on-one with adult mentors flourish as they grow. We have many youth who would benefit from consistent relationships with caring adults.
Are you that adult mentor willing and able to help a child?
Join us and learn about our programs in the schools and your community.
FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
Mentoring month is celebrated across the U.S. every January to promote mentoring youth.
According to the National Mentoring Partnership, youth who have a mentor are more likely to stay in school and graduate, have improved peer and adult relationships and self-esteem, and are less likely to engage in risky behaviors.
Windsor County Partners provides safe, supportive and fulfilling in-school and community-based programs to foster mentoring across all of Windsor County, which extends across 24 towns from Rochester and Norwich to the north to Woodstock, Windsor and Springfield. The southern region includes Springfield, Weathersfield, Baltimore, Cavendish, Chester, Ludlow, Andover and Weston.
