The Role of Mentors

We are looking for volunteers to mentor participants for the day-long On the Move workshop.  No experience necessary! A short training is provided at 8:00 a.m. on the day of the event. Mentors travel with small groups of participants throughout the day.

Volunteer mentors should support the notion of the empowerment of people through education, and

  • be able to commit approximately eight hours of time on March 14, 2013
  • have an interest in helping others to succeed
  • be nonjudgmental
  • be willing to share relevant experiences
  • be willing to give us input on the experience
