One-on-one instruction, or mentoring, is one of the oldest forms of teaching. Our parents and grandparents are our earliest mentors; later, we may be mentored by--or act as mentors to--brothers, sisters, and friends. We understand the importance of these relationships. Our mentor programs work because they provide encouragement and guidance to everyone that participates.

Successful positive youth development initiatives go beyond our TeachThemYoungER programs: they involve many different community sectors in creating the services, opportunities, and supports young people need. We will leverage resources to provide opportunities.

Family engagement means that families and their children’s schools, and learning programs are all involved in the child’s learning and development. There is a partnership between TTY and the family, and a connection to the community. We will provide information and access to resources if needed.
