Supporting Our Youth Mentoring Policy and Procedure Manual Types of Mentoring and/or Housing Arrangements For the purposes of this project, the various mentoring and housing arrangements will be divided into two categories: community mentoring and supportive housing which includes a component of mentoring. Individual matches may shift from one type of arrangement to another, in consultation with project staff. Community Mentoring Community mentoring involves matching a lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, transsexual, queer or questioning youth, between 15 and 25 years of age, with an adult who is lesbian, gay, bisexual, transsexual or transgender, or gay-positive or trans-positive adult, who is willing to be a "friend" and a positive adult role model to the youth in a regular, organized way. Community mentoring does not involve having the youth live with the community mentor, although the youth may stay at the home of the community mentor from time to time. Community mentoring arrangements will be tailored to the specific developmental and social needs of the youth; the exact nature of the relationship will be spelled out in a contract between the youth and the community mentor at the time the match is made. All arrangements must conform with the project's policies and guidelines, as described in this manual. Community mentoring may include a range of different arrangements, with varying degrees of intensity. Some examples are:

Home Contact Us Mentor Testimony YOUTH MENTORING Welcome to youth mentoring! We pray that the information we provide will help you establish a powerful and effective ministry of discipling children. Youth mentoring is one of the most effective ways to minister to single-parent families and/or at-risk children. Statistics show that nearly one-fourth of America's children, over 10 million, live in a mother-only family. Over half of these children seldom or never see their fathers. In addition, over 2 million children live in a single-father family. God cares very much for all children, but many times He singles out the fatherless children. " A Father of the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in His holy habitation." Psalm 68:5 " Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world." James 1:27
