Mentoring Program Referral Form
PROGRAM UPDATE:
With the new situation regarding the Covid-19 virus, Some Other Solutions will be moving our mentoring sessions into an online format. We hope to be able to still connect with you through software called 'Zoom". Zoom is an online video/audio conferencing application , that doesn't require any download on your end. On Zoom we will be able to schedule time and send you a link to the session. It is compatible with androids/apples/tablets and most laptops/desktop computers. If you are interested in connecting with a mentor, please fill out this form below. If for some reason you are unable to fill out this form please email [email protected] or call us at our office between 8:30 AM - 4:30 PM at 1-780-743-8605.
PROGRAM DETAILS:
We believe that a positive adult role-model is vital to the healthy progression of every child. Our Mentors build positive relationships and trust by meeting with Mentees for 30 minutes on a weekly basis, for a determined period of time (up to the whole year). In these meetings, the Mentor and Mentee build rapport and trust through various activities that focus on self esteem, communication skills and coping skills. Topics often discussed include making friends, anger, teasing and bullying, not being understood and how family/home life is affecting their mental health. Maximum referrals for a Mentor per school: 6 Mentees per day.*For each school the appointed main referral contact will be required to complete Mentee progress surveys, and meet with the Mentor to give Mentee updates during the school year.
