MSU Extension Wayne County 4-H Mentoring Program

The Wayne County 4-H Mentoring Program is designed to provide 1-to-1 mentors for at-risk youth ages 10-17 who are at risk of dropping out of school, low academic performance and delinquency. Mentors and mentees agree to participate in the program for at least one year to encourage effective and meaningful program experiences. Mentor matches meet twice a week for two hours at a time. Through case management and mentoring, program participates are connected with community resources and activities including but not limited to: academic enrichment, tutoring, counseling, workforce development skills, career fairs, vocational training, outdoor education explorations, the arts and volunteerism.
