Step With You
Mentoring Program
ABOUT: Next Step Up’s “Step With You” provides individual and group mentoring. The mentoring program facilitates weekly mentor-mentee contact, and monthly group activities that facilitate bonding. Mentors are responsible for contacting the mentees at least once a week for one hour and/or whenever they are needed; mentors ensure that the student reaches their true potential. The mentoring program hosts organized group activities once a month to promote engagement and socialization between the mentor and mentee. The ultimate goal is to foster healthy relationships with a trusted individual that empowers students to pursue their dreams and ambitions.
