Coalitions

Coalitions

Our mentoring coalitions play a vital role in serving youth populations throughout the state. Made up of individual mentoring programs, mentoring coalitions help their members to receive the education and funding that results in more young people being served, by way of mentoring efforts that are safer and more effective. Through collaboration with their local mentoring coalitions, mentoring programs are better positioned to survive and thrive, and to provide the support and encouragement our young Californians deserve.

A big THANK YOU! goes out to our coalitions for your commitment to building stronger, healthier communities and for making mentoring a key strategy in your efforts to support young people on their path to adulthood!
