serve mentors, youth and the community. By serving as mentors in the

Generations Training
The training covers the appropriate
roles of a mentor, how to listen and connect with a child, and
how to handle difficult situations, using the Creative Mentoring
Philosophy. We offer free public training sessions for adults
conveniently located throughout Delaware. A complimentary copy
of " The Power of One: a Mentor Handbook" is given to every
trained mentor, The manual prepares them to build effective
relationships with their mentee, to help them reach their full
potential.

Coordinator will work with the mentors through the enrollment
process. After completing mentor training, and interview and
background check, Big Brothers and Big Sisters will match
mentors with a student in the Capital School mentoring program
or with a child in the local community.

will serve as a contact for adult mentors working with high
school students. They will also facilitate the program for high
school students to mentor younger elementary students.
