All it takes to change a child’s life in foster care is a little bit of your time each month. And with AASK, you’ll be prepared to build a long-lasting relationship with a child or teen in need.
AASK mentors not only undergo extensive training to understand what foster care is like for a child, but they also have access to and regular check-ins with a program coordinator to answer questions and celebrate successes.
As a mentor, you and your mentee can spend your time together as you like. This includes but is not limited to working on homework, hiking, catching a movie, arts and crafts, or cooking together.
The need for mentors is high, so join AASK for a virtual, commitment-free information session and see if now is the right time to make a difference in a child’s life!
