Roots and Horizons 
Mentors in the program commit to one year of weekly meetings and are carefully matched with a mentee according to their mutual interests and personalities. Mentors engage children in a variety of activities such as playing board games, working on homework, going to the movies or just shooting hoops.
To encourage mentoring matches throughout their entire friendship, we also plan ongoing, group activities for everyone to enjoy. Events we have organized in the past include a Disco Skate night at a local skating rink, pool party and BBQ at the Sacramento Marriott Rancho Cordova, celebration dinners and trips to the movies.
