Goal of the program: Support students by providing a one-to-one relationship with a current Cabrillo College employee mentor who volunteers to help their new student mentee be more successful in college. Mentors draw upon their own experiences and knowledge to provide suggestions and guidance on everything from classes, study strategies, campus organizations and resources, to life skills. In addition to the mentor/mentee relationships, students receive support by being part of the close-knit mentoring program community where they’ll meet other mentors and mentees.
