Cultivating Resilient, Connected & Thriving Youth with Evidence-Based Mentoring Programs
The SPARK Mentoring Programs provide evidence-based K -12th grade programs and professional development opportunities that increase emotional well-being, resilience, and emotional regulation while developing executive functioning skills needed to navigate life with greater ease.
Mentoring Programs Inspired by Ongoing Classroom Evidence & Results
For more than 10 years, we have developed, implemented, and researched K-12 mentoring and mental health education programs in our local community that are proven to help youth uncover their innate potential. Grounded in evidence and best practice, our programs Speak to the Potential, Ability, and Resilience inside every Kid (SPARK).
Our highly interactive, asset-based programs guide young people to discover their unbreakable SPARK inside through a better understanding of themselves and others. This knowledge has been proven to increase outcomes in the following competencies: mental well-being, resilience, emotional regulation, communication, problem-solving, and decision-making skills.
