About the Mentorship Program
The mandate of the Mentorship Program is to connect Indigenous youth,
ages 12 to 15, to volunteer mentors in the community. With the support of
positive role-models, youth have the opportunity to realize their strengths and
work towards future goals. Our aim is to empower youth and provide them with
the tools they need to make positive choices and changes, helping them grow
into strong, capable and confident adults.
Volunteer Position Description
We are seeking committed volunteer mentors, from all backgrounds, to
engage in meaningful and supportive relationships with 12 to 15-year-old
Indigenous youth. Volunteer Mentors will meet with their youth throughout the

activities together. Both Indigenous and non-Indigenous persons are encouraged
to apply.
