TransMentoring Program
Matching local trans-children/youth with trans-adult mentors


Program Details
The TransMentoring Program is part of the Big Brothers Big Sisters One-to-One Mentoring Program. The TransMentoring Program is designed to provide young trans people with trans mentors who can be positive influences, answer the hard questions, and serve as role models that inspire Littles to be themselves. In this program we match 7-17 year old trans-children/youth with trans-adult mentors.
Healthy communities are built by empowering young people to lead vibrant, healthy and productive lives. We work to create positive matches that enrich the lives of both the mentor and the mentee. So many children wish they had someone to talk to, someone to relate to, someone to tell them that how they feel and who they are is more than just normal, it is extraordinary!
Big Brothers Big Sisters makes every effort to assure that Bigs are matched with Littles who share your interests so that the relationship will be rewarding and mutually beneficial. Littles come from a variety of backgrounds and economic levels which adds richness to the relationship.
Big Brothers Big Sisters is an inclusive organization. We accept people of all genders and sexual orientations. All volunteers for Big Brothers Big Sisters are interviewed, screened, and trained by our professional agency staff.
Become a MentorVolunteer for a few hours, two to four times a month, to hang out with a child/youth that just needs a friend & mentor. Play ball, garden, have a bonfire, cook, go to the beach, whatever will be fun for you both! You will help your Little grow through some of the most impressionable years of their life. Volunteers say the time spent with their Littles is one of the most rewarding parts of their life. Best of all, you will support your Little’s positive self-esteem that all children deserve to have.
