How Do we Help?

The Generation Hope Mentorship Program is designed to tackle the complex challenges faced by today’s students. Through weekly 60-minute sessions during seminar/study hall periods, trained mentors will guide students through a comprehensive character education curriculum that emphasizes leadership and, most importantly, shares hope. By addressing the diverse needs of youth and connecting them with essential resources, this program builds an infrastructure of care, equipping students and their families for success. Through a trauma-informed curriculum, positive role models, and a supportive community, Generation Hope empowers youth to make healthier choices and envision a brighter future.
