Change a child's life by becoming a mentor with MENTOR Rhode Island!

Being a mentor is about communicating in a meaningful way. It’s about being yourself, sharing your experience, and your perspective on life. As a mentor, you’ll form a one-to-one relationship with a young person who needs your support and attention. You’ll be a positive role model and a trusted friend. And, as with any friendship, you’ll get a lot out of it, too.

Studies show us that at least 1 in 3 youth will grow up without a mentor. Help us close the mentoring gap for youth in Woonsocket!

Mentoring takes place for one hour per week, on school grounds and during school hours. The Warwick mentorship program serves youth in grades k-12 in Woonsocket Public Schools.

Mentors must complete an application, background check, reference check, and two-hour training to qualify for our program.
