Adult Volunteers are Needed to

Make a Difference in the Life of a Youth

Community Mentor Opportunities

As a community mentor, we ask for a commitment of one year. Our community mentors spend three hours each week with a youth incarcerated or recently released from one of the state's juvenile correctional facilities.

The AIM program is in operation in several of Indiana's juvenile correctional facilities. Our mentors are given flexibility in deciding their weekly schedule, assigned youth and facility.

Throughout the year long commitment, mentors receive training and support from AIM staff.

Requirements:

Must be at least 21 years old (college students 18-20 may volunteer to assist with group activities)

Have excellent communication skills–especially in the area of listening

Recognize and accept the diversity of others

Demonstrate the ability to interact with youth between the ages of 12-19

Have a good sense of humor and a great deal of patience

Pass criminal background and reference checks

Participate in an interview

Must possess a valid driver's license and automobile insurance

Have reliable transportation

Complete mentor orientation and trainings
