The Big Brothers Big Sisters organization aims to significantly contribute to the healthy development of youth in the community by providing mentoring relationships to children in need. Mentors advise and challenge their young mentoree, act as their champions, provide greater consistency in their lives, connect them to broader experiences, opportunities and networks, and provide safe, nonjudgmental environments in which the child or youth can confide anything.
