MENTORING RESOURCES

The HEAR Mentoring Program offers a comprehensive handbook, enrichment sessions, online resources, and training to new mentor volunteers. Regular newsletters are also sent to keep volunteers informed with the latest research. Training sessions provide a great opportunity to connect with fellow mentors and address any challenges you may be facing in your mentor relationship.

Once you sign up to become a mentor, HEAR will provide access to an online training program. Completing this training is required before an introduction is made to a scholar. It offers valuable guidance on building a strong connection with your student, prepares you for potential questions you may be asked, and provides suggestions on how to respond effectively.

We are constantly updating our Mentor Resources, please send any relevant articles you may see to info@hearfoundation.org. Please also let us know if there are any particular areas of the Mentor process that you would like more support on!
