After you are matched, you’ll get a dedicated Mentoring Relationship Specialist who’ll stay in touch with you regularly to provide assistance and feedback. You can always reach out to them whenever you are unsure about how to handle a situation or what to do next. They’ll guide you with ideas for fun activities, advise you on handling possible difficult situations, and provide feedback on how you’re making a difference.
For Bigs who are looking to grow as a mentor professionally and personally, BBBSCI hosts trainings throughout the year that touch on various topics like youth mental health, cultural humility, empathy, LGBTQ+ inclusion, and much more.
For Community-Based (“CB”) mentoring relationships, BBBSCI also provides fun, engaging, and educational activities for Bigs and Littles to do together! Each month, we host or facilitate approximately 10 activities for Bigs and Littles each month that explore different hobbies, passions, and learning opportunities.
