There is an ongoing need for adult mentors as many students are nominated for TeamMates.  Adult mentors apply online at www.teammates.org.  Following the approved application and backgrounds checks, mentors attend a 2 hour training and then are matched with a middle school student at the school of their choice and start weekly meetings.  Being a mentor is an exceptional way to connect with a young person and form a strong relationship built over time.  Watching a 12 year old grow into an adult that you get to connect to as a friend (not parent) is life changing, for both the mentor and mentee.
