Mentorship
Mentorship is an integral part of any youth development organization and New Nakfa recognizes the importance of 1-on-1 mentorship. The goal of this mentorship program is to pair youth participants with older members of the community who will be able to guide them through their personal or professional challenges. Mentors will be able to connect with their mentees and can speak to the struggles of growing up as second-generation Eritrean-Canadians in an era of social media. They can also go on to candidly share their success stories and how they were able to overcome obstacles, discover their passions, unlock opportunities, and find the resources that have led them to success.
