TRY Mentoring

TRY Australia’s Mentoring program is founded on the knowledge that having the support and guidance of a mentor encourages young people to recognise their strengths and develop their own personal attributes. Being matched to a fully screened volunteer gives the young person the opportunity to develop a significant friendship with an older mentor and a positive and safe environment to promote personal growth and increased self-esteem. The young person also has the opportunity to participate in a variety of different activities to grow socially and emotionally and is supported by professional staff and trained people who model positive, responsible behaviour.
