Kinship provides mentoring services to youth (age 6-18) who primarily live in homes w/o both of their parents. This includes single parent homes and also foster, guardian and step-parent situations. These services focus on 1:1 matches and also through group mentoring activities. In 2023 Kinship served 70 youth total.

At the heart of it, they are an opportunity to foster positive relationships between Kinship's youth & adults.
