Youth Mentorship Volunteer

1731 – 10 Avenue SW, Calgary, AB, T3C 0K1 [map]
1-6 hours / weekly
Minimum one year of commitment
Volunteers support youth involved with the criminal justice system.  Mentors attend court with their mentees as emotional support, assist with follow up on their court orders, and mentor their youth throughout their processes. This intervention program assists vulnerable youth involved with the justice system and helps youth meet the expectations of their conditions and prevents detention or further charges from being added. Through relationship building and positive social activities, mentors develop natural relationships with youth, enhancing the trust they have in working with the system and encouraging the completion of court orders.

To apply, please send resume, cover letter, and the names & email addresses of two professional references to our Youth Legal Advocate, Palveen Bring, at youthmentor@elizabethfrycalgary.ca.
Why should you volunteer for this opportunity?
Volunteers will gain significant knowledge of the youth criminal justice system, while providing valuable mentorship and support to vulnerable youth.
