Can having a one-on-one mentorship with a child help them overcome poverty and change their life? Well, that’s what National CARES Mentoring Movement believes. Since 2005, the National CARES Mentoring Movement has recruited, trained and connected more than 140,000 caring mentors with more than 200,000 children in schools and local youth-serving programs in 58 cities. Our partners at Metrofocus join Susan L. Taylor, former editor-in-chief of Essence magazine and founder of National CARES Mentoring Movement, to discuss how the program is allowing under-served children the opportunity to realize their dreams.
