Five Steps to Becoming a Mentoring USA Mentor

STEP 1

Can you make a one-year commitment to mentor a youth for one hour a week at school, foster care agency or community center in New York City? If yes, then move to Step 2. To learn more about our programs click here . 

STEP 2

Review Mentoring USA's Program Sites, and find three locations that will fit with your interests and schedule. If you are able to identify a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd site preference, then move to Step 3.

STEP 3

Complete the Mentor Application, including three references and three site preferences. At current time we can only accept applications from mentors in the New York Metropolitan area.

STEP 4

Attend our New Mentor Training. When you come in for training you will complete paperwork in connection with a background check. 

STEP 5

Mentoring USA will make a site placement, based on your preference, 2 to 3 weeks after training upon the applicants successful completion of our background check and reference checks.
