Want to make a difference in our community?

YMCA Louisville’s Y-NOW mentorship program needs adult mentors to provide encouragement, support, and stability to youth ages 11-15 experiencing a challenging home life.

The program connects children whose parents are incarcerated or in active addiction to a safe + non-judgmental community with one-on-one mentorship to help them reach their full potential.
