It aims to increase their independence, abilities, and freedom to thrive while reducing unemployment, mental health issues, crime rates, and homelessness. The mentoring pack facilitates the matching of mentors and mentees based on skills and experience, offering resources and guidelines to ensure a productive and impactful mentoring relationship.
Mentee Responsibilities
Mentees are responsible for actively engaging with their mentors, seeking guidance, and demonstrating a willingness to learn and grow. They should come prepared with specific questions, challenges, or goals they wish to address during their interactions. By showing initiative and being open to feedback, mentees can maximize the benefits of mentorship.
