The programme matches an adult volunteer to a young person in need of support. Its core
assumption is that a caring and supportive friendship will develop and reinforce the positive
development of the young person. Typically, the match meets once a week, for one to two hours, and the initial commitment is for one year. The underlying assumption is that the adult volunteer
will become a role model, a mentor, but perhaps most of all, a friend. A blended mentoring
programme can be offered to support young people by matching them with a caring adult
volunteer who they can connect with weekly in person or online.
