Mentoring

Hathaway-Sycamores has opportunities for adults, 21 and over to mentor youth at our residential treatment center in Altadena.

Hathaway-Sycamores Child and Family Services’ Mentoring for Life program was developed to provide youth, ages 10-18 in foster/residential care with the opportunity to develop a relationship with a caring adult who is there to listen, support, guide and be a friend. Study after study has shown that quality youth mentoring is associated with higher self-esteem, positive relationships with adults and peers, reduction in risk–related behavior and improved academic performance.

Through our caring mentors, youth receive support, guidance, and friendship to help them navigate through difficult transitions in their lives.
Please consider volunteering your time as a mentor and make a difference in the life of a vulnerable youth.
