People talk about giving back…now here’s an opportunity to make a difference. Will you give some of your time to mentor a child in Compton? Its so easy to identify problems and point the finger at others…we all must look at ourselves. There is something that we can all do to bring about change. The children are the future and that’s a great place to start making a real difference.
INMED’s Embracing Our Youth mentoring program provides a positive adult role model to children of state and federal prisoners in order to break the cycle of violence, substance abuse and criminal involvement that commonly leads to intergenerational incarceration. Through the program, volunteer mentors provide a positive adult role model for youth with incarcerated parents, help promote emotional stability and improve self-esteem among these children, connect families with supportive community resources, and promote civic responsibility among mentored children by providing opportunities to volunteer in the community.
Thanks for the heads up HubCityLivin’
