Partner Schools

To apply for mentoring services for your high school(s), please complete the application below. Mentors Care targets high schools in rural and suburban communities where there are fewer social programs offered to at-risk high school students for academic success.  If your school qualifies, we will contact you within 5 to 10 business days.
