Due to a grant from the Department of Social and Health Services Division of Behavioral Health and Recovery, the Funhouse is looking for adults willing to mentor Orcas Island 6th-12th graders. Orcas students with specific skill and career training opportunities.
Building one-on-one relationships between teens and adults, with the focus on developing skills that teens want to learn, is a great way the Funhouse can help youth explore what it is they’re interested in, give them direct learning opportunities with adults who have succeeded in these areas and help them prepare for their exciting futures.
The Funhouse will also offer group mentoring classes as part of an new Friday evening schedule for middle and high school students. There will also be a Job/Experience Fair in April.
If you are interested in mentoring, or if you are a teen looking for an adult mentor, please contact the Funhouse. For more info., contact Emilie at 376-7177 or emilie@thefunhouse.org.
