Sponsored By: Senator Whitehouse, Sheldon [D-RI]
Passed Senate
Summary
National Mentoring Month designates January 2025 to spotlight mentoring and push for more high-quality mentor relationships. The resolution highlights mentoring’s benefits for youth, including stronger academic achievement, higher self-esteem, better college access, career exploration, and improved mental health, and notes mentoring is especially helpful for underserved groups like foster youth and Alaska Native and American Indian youth. It cites a mentoring gap where one in three young people lacks a mentor and urges public, private, and nonprofit collaboration to recruit mentors and expand programs.
