National Mentoring Month

Jan 1–31. Goals include raising awareness of mentoring in its various forms; recruiting individuals to mentor, especially in programs that have a waiting list of young people; and promoting the rapid growth of mentoring by recruiting organizations to help find mentors for young people. Each January, this monthlong campaign will provide nationwide publicity and information about mentoring programs in various communities that need volunteers. Thank Your Mentor Day is Jan 21. Sponsors: Harvard School of Public Health, MENTOR and the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS). For info: MENTOR/National Mentoring Partnership, 1600 Duke St, Ste 300, Alexandria, VA 22314. Phone: (703) 224-2200. Web: www.nationalmentoringmonth.org.
