RISE AmeriCorps Mentoring Program

The RISE AmeriCorps Program Mentor Match Program is designed to connect AmeriCorps members with mentors in the communities they are serving. These community members serve as links to community resources and offer friendly support. Members will meet with these individuals, share about their work, experience, and anything else.
