Mentoring programs enrich children's lives, help meet their need for positive adult contact, and provide one-on-one support and advocacy. Most notably, positive mentoring experiences have proven to be an effective tool to help youth overcome the risk factors that can lead to problems such as educational failure, dropping out of school, teen pregnancy, self-esteem difficulties, and involvement in delinquent activities, including gang crime and drug abuse.
