821<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Since youâve reached this conclusion, we trust that youâve done your research and understand how unique each mentoring relationship is.

822<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The following steps will help walk you through the process of choosing a mentoring program that is right for you. To </span><b>help you decide which type of mentoring program you want</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, ask yourself the following questions:</span></p>

828<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">What types of activities interest me? Do I want to help a youth learn a specific skill, pursue an interest, help with schoolwork, or just be a caring adult friend?</sp

842<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Once youâve identified several possible programs, how should you get in touch?</span></p>
843<ul>
844<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Start by talking to each organizationâs volunteer coordinator.</span></li>
845<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Tell the coordinator you are thinking about mentoring a young personâor a group of young peopleâand would like to know if their organization offers volunteer opportunities for adults.</span></li>
846<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Describe the amount of time you have, the types of activities you are interested in and the number of young people you would like to mentor.</span></li>
847<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ask about the process the program uses to match young people with mentors.</span></li>
848<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Identify the different mentoring options the program offers (one-to-one mentoring, team mentoring, short

848-term mentoring, one-time projects, virtual mentoring, etc.).</span></li>
849</ul>
850<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You should also ask the coordinator about training and support for volunteers, as well as the application and screening process.Â </span></p>
851<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The application process can include a written application, personal and professional references, a background check, and a personal interview. </span><b>Donât be discouraged</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> if the first program you select doesnât match your needs or you donât match its needs. If that happens, try again! Ask to be referred to another organization, or contact your </span><a href="https://www.mentoring.org/who-we-are/affiliates/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">State or Local Affiliate</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> for another referral. </span></p>

860		<div class="accordion-content">
861			<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When you join a mentoring program â and before you are matched with a young person â you will </span><b>receive intensive training aimed at helping you understand and prepare for your role</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> and responsibilities. Then, throughout your mentoring relationship, youâll receive ongoing training and support. This training and support should address the majority of your concerns. If it doesnât, donât hesitate to ask questions!Â </span></p>
862<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">On this page, weâve listed a few common concerns you may have. We understand that committing to mentor a young person comes with a lot of responsibility and may feel like brand new territory. You may worry that you wonât know how to do this.Â </span></p>
863<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">But try thinking about your background; you may have already been a mentor in informal situations. Maybe you helped a niece or nephew with schoolwork, or listened to a young person who thought nobody cared. In each instance, you were acting as a mentor. By joining a mentoring program, you are simply formalizing your commitment to help guide a young person. At the same time, you get the benefit of comprehensive training and ongoing support.</span></p>
864<h3><b>What if we donât hit it off right away?</b></h3>
865<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Itâs not easy to trust a stranger, especially if youâre a young person whoâs had a lot of bad experiences with adults in the past. It may take a while to build trust. Donât interpret caution as rejection. A young person may not show it â in fact, he or she may not even know it fully â but your help is definitely wanted.</span></p>
866<h3><b>What if something extremely serious comes up?</b></h3>
867<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">While most mentoring relationships develop and flourish without serious problems, challenges do arise. Mentors have an important role, but that role does not include family counseling, or medical and psychological treatment. There are support systems in place for real emergencies. Contact your mentoring program coordinator for more information. The most a mentor is expected to do â and should do â is to help guide a young person to the appropriate source of professional help.</span></p>
868<h3><b>What if we donât have anything in common?</b></h3>
869<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Many first-time mentors worry that differences in age, race, religion, education or gender will be insurmountable barriers. However, most experienced mentors report that mentoring a young person from a different background broadened their own horizons and deepened their understanding of other people and cultures.</span></p>
870<h3><b>What if I canât mentor anymore?</b></h3>
871<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This is a very serious concern. Mentoring is a deep commitment. There are times, however, when uncontrollable things happen â perhaps a job relocation or sickness â and you simply must withdraw from your mentoring relationship. If that happens, you need to talk with your program coordinator and discuss the best way to end the relationship. Except for such unavoidable circumstances, itâs best to stay in a mentoring relationship. You could do far more harm than good if you enter a young personâs life, build trust and then abandon the relationship. Be honest with yourself when committing to be a mentor. </span><b>If you arenât sure about in-depth mentoring, try one of the many shorter-term alternatives, such as tutoring or one-time projects.</b></p>
872<h3><b>What if I do something wrong?</b></h3>
873<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you are there for your young friend no matter what; if you listen and really hear whatâs being said; and if you do your best to counsel and not to judge, you will have done everything right. Some young people are more ready than others for a mentor. Some may test a mentorâs commitment. Try not to take such behavior personally. Just keep doing your best and following your mentoring programâs guidelines. Gauge your success by your actions, not your menteeâs.</span></p>
