What We Do
The JFS Community Mentoring Program makes a difference in the lives of youth by matching caring adults with those between the ages of 6-17 who would benefit from a positive adult role model. Spending a minimum of four hours together a month, mentors offer encouragement, guidance, and stability that helps a child build confidence and thrive.
Program participants commit to one year, and the mentees/youth live within Boca Raton, Delray Beach, and Highland Beach.
Additionally, all mentors are provided ongoing mentor training.
