Campus Connections (CC) is recruiting undergraduate and graduate students to become mentors for the Spring 2024 semester. Campus Connections is a for-credit experiential mentorship program on campus that provides students the opportunity to engage with the community, build a mentoring relationship with local youth who require a supportive role model for the school semester, develop foundational counseling skills, move up in leadership roles, and create long lasting peer relationships.
Campus Connections mentors spend four hours once a week with their mentee in a group setting to provide academic support, career planning and positive social skill development.
UNC student mentors assist youth with developing goals while providing an environment conducive to goal attainment. Campus Connections takes place entirely on UNC’s campus, providing exposure to campus and university life, thus allowing for youth to experience firsthand the possibilities of education and the value of learning.
