Volunteer Youth Mentors

1-2 hours / weekly
3 month commitment
Not everyone has the support of a caring adult in their life: EMBERS mentors help youth navigate life choices with support, respect and guidance based on their life experience.

EMBERS is at a crucial stage of recruiting mentors and I invite you to volunteer. By doing so, you will make a real difference in the life of a Canadian youth.

What it involves:
● One 1-hour session to train you in your role as mentor
● Regular meetings with your mentee, in person or on-line, for at least 3 months
● Monthly half-hour meet-ups with other mentors and the mentorship program manager to compare experiences and get guidance
● Support from staff at all times
Why should you volunteer for this opportunity?
Inclusive mentorship training will be provided.
Rewarding opportunity to help a young person gain employment and/or education leading to employment.
Help developing communication and careers advising skills.

Good opportunity for those studying adult education, teaching or careers development practitioner.
