At the same time, they will develop leadership skills and get paid a stipend for their participation.” During the school year, mentors will help the participants each develop a unique project that educates their school or neighborhood about topics, such as dating violence or sexual violence. Interested candidates must return an application by Friday, September 10. Participants do not need any prior experience or education to apply, but they must identify an adult mentor who will assist them throughout the year with program requirements.
