Is your company looking for a way to give back and make a difference in the community?
Companies are paying increasing attention to their corporate social responsibility (CSR) and social agenda. Corporate Social Responsibility efforts positively affect the way the companies do business, including increasing brand awareness and employee satisfaction.
Mentor is looking for business leaders and companies who understand the importance of investing in the future of our youth. You can make a difference in your community by inspiring youth to realize their full potential and helping to lead the way to a brighter future.
We are in a very competitive hiring market and potential employees always ask about our CSR programs. Working with Mentor has allowed us to retain great employees and provide invaluable CSR opportunities for our company.

Our ‘Living the Example’ (LTE) program is an innovative peer-to-peer drug prevention and education program that has proven effective in shifting students’ intents and attitudes towards substance use. Evaluation has found that students exposed to the LTE program are six times less likely to intend to use any substance.
The program objective is to engage adolescents, parents, educators and the community in an effective substance use prevention and education program. A central and unique strategy is to involve adolescents in communicating positive messages regarding substance abuse to their peers using age-appropriate terminology and media transmittal systems (social media) most used by them.

One of the most powerful thing parents can do is to build and maintain strong relationships with their children. That is not always easy, but intentional investment in the parent-child relationship is the most important way a parent can help their children develop the tools needed to succeed in life.
Mentor’s parent workshops are held to help educate parents and caregivers about current substance use threats and local resources to seek help. Parents are taught to identify early signs of addiction through the Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) approach. Workshops also provide skills and techniques for parents to enhance their communication and relationship with their children. The goal of the workshop is to increase parent awareness of the dangers surrounding substance abuse and increase knowledge of how to get help if needed for themselves and/or their child through a local service provider.
