Why does FASTEN recommend this resource?
A strong mentoring relationship with a caring adult is a terrific way to help steer youth away from violence and substance abuse. These booklets offer mentoring program coordinators some powerful and practical tools to give to volunteer mentors to help them build relationships with their new “mentees.” The activities and ideas included are specifically designed to help the mentoring relationship grow. They include age-appropriate topics that may be of interest to mentees.
