Why Mentoring Matters
Now More Than Ever
Today’s young people are facing record levels of depression, anxiety, and isolation. In fact, Gen Z youth report unmet mental health needs related to these challenges four times more often than Baby Boomers, and more than twice as often as Millennials.
At its core, mentoring means making sure no young person feels alone. It means having someone who shows up — consistently, compassionately, and without judgment.
Yet research shows that millions of youth are growing up without a single trusted adult in their lives.
That’s where we (you included 😊) step in — to make sure every child has someone in their corner.
