A Graduation Mentor is a new mentoring program that will blend the Community Based and School Based programs to support the students at Eastglen High School towards high school completion. Mentors/Mentees can meet within the school or community; whichever is best to support the student.
The Mentor and the youth meet one on one for a couple of hours each week or every other week, depending on the circumstances, to engage in relationship building activities in a community or school setting. Mentors provide support to youth by listening, being an advocate, sharing themselves, establishing structure, highlighting strengths, and making the experience unique and positive. Schedules are flexible to meet the needs of the volunteers and youth.

Mentors need to complete the following prior to participating in the Graduation Mentor program.
• Online Application
• Online Alberta Mentoring Partnership training
