Mentoring brings out the 'youth' in adults

January is National Mentoring Month, and the North Fayette Valley Mentoring program is promoting greater awareness of the opportunities available both through being a mentor or a mentee.
Mentoring can help youth as they go through challenging life transitions, including dealing with stressful changes at home or transitioning to adulthood.
Jennifer Everitt, a paraeducator at West Union Elementary, has been a mentor for Destiny Quario of West Union since 2008.
