Thank you for your interest in becoming a mentor with Y-WE! Mentors support youth participants through a collaborative group mentorship model, help with minor logistics like tracking attendance as youth arrive, and play an important part in stewarding a culture of belonging and empowerment. You can learn more here.

It will also ask which programs you are interested in and available for- to see program descriptions, as well as dates and times, please visit the programs page of the website. 

We'll be in touch once we're ready to start pairing mentors with programs. Don't worry if you don't hear from us right away!

As a mentor, your consistent attendance is essential! Please check the dates of the program you are applying for to make sure you can attend most of the program, and make attending mentor trainings/meetings a priority. If you have questions about this, please contact us. A few reminders: by filling out this form you're giving Y-WE consent to run standard background checks; the situation with Covid continues to evolve and we'll ask everyone to follow Y-WE's safety policies and guidelines specific to the program/space/timing/etc; we ask folks to fill out updated Hold Harmless/Medical forms every year or so- we'll let you know if we need fresh ones from you.
