Friends of the Children is the only program in the nation that connects young children with paid, professional mentors for thirteen years.

Friends of the Children provides one-on-one mentoring relationships for the most at-risk children, from the time they enter kindergarten until high school graduation. The mentors help to uncover a child’s potential and build a lifelong foundation for success– through friendship, advocacy and education.
