AMIGOS Mentoring Program

Family Services’ Amigos program provides mentoring for Lawrence youth ages 11-15 who, at the time of enrollment, attend the Guilmette, Arlington or the RISE Academy. Mentors and mentees meet 3-4 times a month and spend 1.5 - 2 hours together each time. Training, support, quarterly events, and incentives are provided to participants. The goal of the program is to prevent gang involvement by providing youth with an adult role model who forms a consistent and positive relationship with their youth mentee.
