Peterborough, Canada The John Howard Society of Peterborough Full time

The Aspire Mentorship Program supports young adults (age 16-25) in achieving their career, education, training, or life goals by connecting them with volunteer mentors in our community.

Volunteer mentors can support young adults by assisting them in building their life skills, getting involved in the community, and opening up new networking opportunities. Mentors contribute to young adults’ success by becoming a caring and consistent figure in their lives. With the support and guidance of mentors, Aspire participants can make more informed decisions about their current situations and future pathways. Volunteer mentors are intentionally matched with participants depending on if their skills/interests/hobbies align with the participant’s goals.

Volunteer Requirements:

- Mentors must participate in a 3-hour volunteer orientation (food & refreshments provided).
- Mentors who are interested in being matched 1:1 are encouraged to commit to one year of meetings.
- Mentors must be willing to discuss meeting in-person and/or virtually depending on everyone’s comfort level and participant’s goals
- All volunteers must sign and adhere to a professional Code of Conduct and Confidentiality Agreement.
