Be a Mentor
Are you looking to make a difference in the life of a young person? Are you interested in investing your time into the future of Rochester's workforce?
The Levine Center To End Hate has received a grant from the Rochester Area Community Foundation to provide skill-building and cultural awareness training to our 2025 Youth Ambassadors while they create social issue awareness projects of their own.
​
Each Youth Ambassador will be paired with a Community Mentor who has experience that is relevant to the youth's project or who represents a field in which the youth is interested in studying in the future. The Mentor's role is to guide, provide feedback, and help the youth realize a project from concept to presentation. Ideally, the Mentor may connect the youth partner with an organization or group to present or discuss their project.
​Requirements:
-
Mentors and Youth Ambassadors meet either at the Levine Center/Jewish Federation office or online, via Zoom, once per week at a mutually convenient time and day (minimum one hour). No meetings are necessary during school vacation weeks or holidays.
-
Mentors must have no prior criminal record.
-
Mentors are responsible for their own transportation.​​​​
