About the Mayor's Mentoring Alliance:
Educate. Ignite. Connect. The Mayor's Mentoring Alliance (MMA) educates mentoring organizations about best practices and mentoring standards through trainings and workshops, ignites impactful and enduring mentor-mentee relationships, and connects Charlotte's mentoring community.
We understand the importance of mentoring and how it can change the lives of youth. Mentors not only provide their mentee with someone who cares about them, but they also help them:
- Improve academic and social skills
- Set career goals
- Improve self-esteem
- Stay in school
- Deal with day-to-day challenges
Mentoring is linked to enhanced academic, social, and economic prospects for youth. When you decide to become a mentor, you are not only making a commitment to positively impact someone's life. You are also ultimately helping to strengthen our local community and workforce.

Movement in Mentoring | Thursday, February 11 from 6-7p
Registration here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/movement-in-mentoring-mentor-mingle-tickets-138874428153
Mentoring programs have been hit hard by COVID-19, yet we never stopped moving
forward to meet the needs of the young people we serve. Please join us for a
Mentoring Mingle Series titled “Movement in Mentoring”. This first session will
focus on ways to calm all the noise, reduce stress, and challenge positive
energy through Mindfulness. Cassandra Drakeford from BeMindful, Inc. will be on
hand to lead us through and exercise and provide you with tools you can use
with mentees.
