Mentoring Immigrant & Refugee Youth: A Toolkit for Program Coordinators
MENTOR
"Mentoring Immigrant Youth: A Toolkit for Program Coordinators" is a comprehensive resource that is designed to offer program staff important background information, promising program practices and strategies to build and sustain high-quality mentoring relationships for different categories of immigrant youth. Included in this resource are five chapters that focus on skills needed to design, plan, manage, operate and evaluate programming specifically for immigrant youth in one's area. Each chapter has a series of "ready-to-use" tools, templates and training exercises that will take readers through the different steps necessary to build or strengthen mentoring relationships that hold the potential to make a difference in the lives of new Americans. In addition, highlighted case studies are included throughout this resource to showcase practices that might be useful to replicate in one's own program. (Contains 8 footnotes and 31 resources.)
