Mentoring Program

CCF Mentors are adult volunteers matched with students of similar backgrounds or interests. Mentors make a minimum one year commitment to develop a relationship with their mentee student. Mentors provide the encouragement and support our students need to make positive educational and life choices.



Chester County Futures supports volunteer mentors by:

  • Providing comprehensive and interactive training to prepare you for your role as a mentor.

  • Facilitating regular Mentor Roundtables so mentors can learn from others' experiences.

  • Distributing our Mentor Newsletter which features program highlights, a calendar of events, mentor resources, and more.

  • Providing on-going support from our staff.

​

Mentors are expected to: 

  • Connect with their student once a month in-person

  • Connect with their student and communicate once a week

  • Plan fun and enriching outings that BOTH of you will enjoy

  • Make a minimum one-year commitment to their student

  • Mentors will continue to talk, have regular face time and interact with their mentee on a frequent, scheduled basis.

​"Through CCF, I was also able to acquire a mentor. As a professional that went through the steps I will soon walk into, she has helped me organize and combat college, internships and summer activity applications. CCF and my mentor have strengthened my personal confidence to bring what I have to offer to the world!"
