CP Mentorship

Ages 14–25 · Students and mentors

Learn to lead. Lead with purpose.

The Mentorship Program helps young people connect their interests with opportunities to learn, serve, and lead. With guidance from mentors and peers, students build skills through academic support and real community work.

How we learn and lead

Education. Experience. Exposure.

Our mentorship approach connects learning with opportunities to contribute. Young people develop their own skills while helping others grow.

Education

Build a foundation

Personalized academic guidance and college preparation help students develop the skills and confidence to pursue their interests.

Experience

Put ideas into practice

Youth-led committees, community projects, and internship opportunities give students a way to practice leadership and work with others.

Exposure

Discover what is possible

Research, public speaking, and learning with community and professional mentors introduce students to new perspectives and pathways.

Find your community

Committees bring students together around shared interests in science, technology, the arts, and community service. Explore their work and find a project you want to help shape.

Grow from participant to mentor

Our youth-to-youth model gives students opportunities to take on more responsibility: contributing to a project, leading a committee, and guiding younger participants. Learning and giving back reinforce each other.
