One-on-One Mentoring


One-on-One Mentoring is a program that matches youth with adult mentors.  These children are either residing in foster care, or are receiving services from either the Department of Children and Families or Danbury Youth Services. They usually are lacking positive adult role models in their lives.   One-on-One seeks to provide these youth with someone who can give them direction and structure.  Mentors commit approximately 2-4 hours per week to spend with their mentee, engaging in a variety of activities.  All mentors are screened prior to becoming a part of this program.  Funding is provided by The Department of Children and Families.

Danbury Youth Services, Inc. seeks mentors for One-on-One on an on-going basis.
