United Way of West Central Connecticut

The Connections Mentor Program is the first in the state of Connecticut within the P.A.S.S. group homes to serve as a volunteer based mentoring program for our girls. The goals of the Connections Mentor Program are to establish long-term relationships with our girls and members of the broader community. The mentors will serve as role models, friends, and surrogate families for girls lacking these resources. The Connections Mentor Program is currently seeking volunteers to serve as individual mentors or mentor families. We want the experience of a mentor relationship to stimulate stable connections, foster socialization, and be memorable. Because our girls need to be exposed to new experiences we are encouraging them to try new things with their mentors. These activities may include going to a sit-down restaurant, going to a theater show, or attending a concert for the first time. All of these experiences help to build character, self confidence, and most notably allow our girls to have fun being girls.

There is an application process and training is provided. All potential mentors will be required to have background checks completed as well as a TB Test.
