The LEAF Mentorship program is designed to help youth ages 10-24 affected by HIV/AIDS explore and achieve their personal goals, which might include: applying to college or vocational school, building a career path and/or applying for the job of your dreams, building a resume and developing other job skills, opening a bank account and building a personal finance plan, creating a personal health plan, or other areas that you would like to learn about, explore, and develop a plan to accomplish. In the program, you will be paired with a mentor. A mentor is an adult friend and role model who will be there to spend time with you, to do activities that you both choose, like going to the movies or playing basketball. A mentor listens to you, supports you, and will be a resource and a guide as you explore and develop a plan for reaching your personal goals. We ask that you be available to spend at least four hours a month with your mentor, which will be a schedule that you and your mentor work out together. You will also talk by phone, e-mail and text message to keep in contact each week.
