Big Brothers Big Sisters Mentoring

Big Brothers Big Sisters is America’s oldest and most respected mentoring organization. We have been the leader in one-to-one mentoring services, with over a century of proven success in creating supportive friendships that benefit children, volunteers, families, and communities. Our mentoring programs are characterized by:

• One-on-one friendship between a caring, adult volunteer and a child.
• Thorough, careful assessment and screening of volunteers, with child safety as our top priority.
• Thoughtful matching of volunteers and children, based on shared interests and preferences.
• Professional, ongoing support for the match for the duration of their time together.
• Measurable outcomes of the impact mentoring makes, using well-accepted youth development metrics.
