Are you ready to start making an impact in the lives of youth in your community?

The team at Catalyst Mentoring is excited to invite you to our Summer Mentor Bootcamps!
This is the first of a two-part training that will have you ready to start mentoring in the fall. We have broken up our 6-hour training into two 3-hour trainings full of great information that will set you up for success with your mentees. We've built this training with lots of room for discussion in order for us to really take time with the material and talk about how you can implement it in your future mentoring relationships.

At the bootcamp, we will be going over the basics of mentoring and how mentorship can change the trajectory of a kids life. From there, we will cover ACE's (Adverse Childhood Experiences) and how our community scores compared to others in our state. We will introduce you to Adolescent Brain Development, giving you a window into how youth make decisions and giving you strategies on how to meet them where they are. We will take a moment to discuss Youth Behavior Skills and what struggles might come up in sessions with your mentees. We will introduce the ways mentorship can increase youth resiliency and the likelihood a young person will succeed in life. Finally, we will end our bootcamp with a conversation on culture and how it impacts the way youth (and all of us) see the world.

When: July 12th; 5 pm - 7 pm
Where: 2280 Benton Drive, Bldg. B, Redding CA 96002
Who: Anybody that feels called to start showing up for youth in need!

We are so looking forward to getting started for the 2023-24 school year, and can't wait to get you connected to the program! There are so many young people in our community who will benefit because of your commitment!
