Testimonials
“Thank you for being the best mentor ever. Hanging out with you is always a highlight of my week” -Mentee
“It has been a very positive experience that has given my son opportunities to do things that I can't provide for him and created new friendships.” - Parent of Mentee
"I just love to be here, it's my safe space and I get to help my community and others who aren't always making the best decisions" "I grew up in a family with all women and wasn't necessarily allowed to use my voice. When I started MCYAC, I was shy and quiet. MCYAC has helped me learn to use my voice and empowered me to use my voice and ideas for good" -Youth Council Member
“This program has impacted my life in such a positive way. Not only have I gained knowledge and passions, but a sense of community. I’ve felt supported through every step, including my experience on the Teen Council. My perspective on a multitude of topics has shifted how I can best help my community.” - Youth Council Member
"It is a great program and needed in the schools. As teachers, we are required to do so much and not all of us are equipped or trained to support the extensive mental health needs of our students. Not only does the school based mentor support the students but he/she also supports the whole team working towards the goal of supporting students." - School Staff Member
We support youth through mentorship, empowerment, and trusted adult engagement so that they can face life's challenges and thrive.
Partners for Youth is the only organization in the Yampa Valley that offers one-to-one mentoring services in the school and community settings. We also offer the only Youth Action Council program, which empowers youth through skill building and leadership development, community engagement, and connection.
Our significant, long term investment in each youth we serve results in an increased sense of connection, increased sense of belonging, increased sense of value, and increased sense of power for participating youth.
Through mentoring, youth empowerment, and trusted adult engagement, Partners is helping youth thrive!
