Transforming the lives of youth

Welcome to The Center for the Advancement of Mentoring

Welcome to the Web site of The Center for the Advancement of Mentoring (TCAM). Funded by the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP), TCAM provides technical assistance and training to OJJDP-funded youth mentoring programs, which are working to transform the lives of at-risk youth.

TCAM Online Training Series for Mentors

The TCAM Online Training Series for Mentors incorporates mentoring research and best practices, interactive activities, opportunities to learn and practice skills, and recommended resources. The series includes six training modules for mentors that focus on how to effectively mentor a young person who is involved in the juvenile justice system, has been involved in a gang or is at risk for gang involvement, is in foster care, is homeless or a runaway, or who has an incarcerated parent.
