We're so happy that you're interested in becoming a Dare to Dream® mentor! We believe that the simple act of telling a mentee "I believe in you," "You are special," and "You are going to do great things" can transform their journey entirely.
Mentors commit to meeting with their mentees every other week for one year (minimum) to set goals and help them achieve their dreams. Our hope is that the relationships built will last a lifetime.
** Please note: You must be at least 22 years old to be a Dare to Dream mentor. **
