The goal of a YDI mentorship program is to accelerate the personal and professional development of mentees. This is achieved by providing mentees with guidance, advice and feedback from mentors with more experience than themselves. The mentoring program will create a learning environment that will be an invaluable resource to students, aspiring mentors, and the community. YDI will develop a plan with mentors to enhance life experiences with mentees and strategize on how to reach the mentees' goals. They will participate in weekly planned activities to strengthen the relationship between the two and improve the young person's confidence and hopefulness. The mentoring program will also include Social Media Awareness, Domestic Violence, Conflict Resolution, Prostitution Awareness, and Human Trafficking Awareness."
