Peer Mentoring
Peer mentoring is a chance for a young adult to get support from an older peer. At UpStreet, our text-message based peer mentoring program makes it easy for teens to support each other.

About Peer Mentoring
UpStreet’s Peer Mentoring program matches mentors, (youth ages 17-22) with mentees (younger peers ages 12-16) to build supportive text messaging-based mentoring relationships. Research shows that peer mentoring is beneficial for both mentor and mentees, and we’re excited to support youth in making these connections!
