About this organization
Mission
The Big Brothers Big Sisters Mission: provide children facing adversity with strong and enduring, professionally supported one-to-one relationships that change their lives for the better, forever.
About
The Community Based program is the more traditional mentoring program of BBBSN. Carefully screened and trained mentors are matched with children in the community who can benefit from an additional caring and positive adult in their life. Over 90% of these children and youth are being raised in a single parent household or, by grandparents - a growing population. These friend matches engage in activities in the community and on a schedule arranged between the Big, Little and parent or guardian. Matches meet several times a month, doing activities in the community that the Big and Little enjoy. We strive to support these matches so they stay together for years, or for life. Special populations who we are targeting based on high need include children involved in the foster care system and juvenile justice involved youth. Research indicates that these youth are at high risk of challenges and need additional adult support in their lives.
