Mecklenburg County has recently seen a surge in youth crime, with incidents ranging from shootings to car thefts. However, these are just the tip of the iceberg, as at least 20 nonviolent crimes committed by youth aged 10-18 occur each week. The need for intervention is clear, and our organization has the solution. By providing a caring adult mentoring relationship outside of the family, we have seen firsthand how the relationship combined with our resources help at-risk youth avoid risky behaviors. With over 80 young people currently waiting to be matched with a mentor, we urge the community to support our mentoring programs and make a positive impact on the future of our youth. hashtag #Choose2Mentor #WordsfromtheCEO 💚 Take a moment to read this story on how volunteering for BBBS can change a mentee's life, forever. - https://lnkd.in/ewNuUMi9
