Overview of class

This course serves as a starting point for students interested in learning and serving in a city-wide youth mentoring project during the 2022-23 school year. Through this course and a complementary one-on-one weekly mentoring session with local middle school students, participants will learn about youth development, education policy, and the potential impact of quality mentoring support. Class sessions will examine strategies for cultivating cultural humility and understanding of the strengths and needs of low-income urban communities within a critical mentoring framework.
