ABOUT
IN YOUR CORNER
In Your Corner is a mentor-to-adulthood program for emerging adults, ages 17-24, to support their (re)integration into society. Participants receive training and mentoring in five interconnected program areas: relationship-building, academic studies, fatherhood training, health care/wellness, and employment/career planning.
In Your Corner also convenes a network of service providers and community mentors for “the Gathering,” where best practices and trainings are shared to support their work with emerging adults.
