Mentoring Collaborative

Become a Hero, Be a Mentor

The Mentoring Collaborative is changing the approach to youth mentoring and we're just getting started! What is encouraging about mentoring today is that everyday people – retirees, college students, grocery store employees, beauticians, members of the armed forces - have become involved with the mentoring movement.

Mentoring has grown into a social movement supported by schools, businesses, government and religious institutions. Mentoring frequently pairs people who might not otherwise find connection.

Service Updates and Emergency Plans

This has been a challenging year for everyone thus far, but just know you are not in this alone.  The Mentoring Collaborative remains committed to provide services and support to our Partners. Over the last several months, MCMC staff have maintained remote operations, under the guidelines of Sinclair Community College (i.e.  Student Enrichment Programs, Director Chris Welch). The remote model has proven to be effective during this time for our partners seeking services.

Beginning August 25, 2020, MCMC is will re-open for limited in-person office hours and by appointment for meetings.  Staff will be available in person Monday-Thursday, by appointment only, with safe health procedures in place.  No walk-in appointments are permitted. 

Please note: At this time, we will not be performing any in office or onsite fingerprinting. Online background checks are available for qualifying partner agencies.

The following safety/health protocols will be implemented:

• Masks face covering in the office will always be required.
• Policies and practices for social distancing in the workplace:  Other than MCMC Staff, a (1) person limit within two (2) hour intervals will be allowed inside the office during operations.  This will allow for increased cleaning/sanitizing of office area and shared surfaces
• Virtual/over the phone appointments are still preferred whenever possible. Staff will remain available Monday- Friday 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. remotely.

To schedule an appointment please contact us by phone 937-512-3179 or email us at : jane.mcewen@sinclair.edu or jessica.bloomingdale@sinclair.edu
